Hence, to help you do the same, here are some tips you need to keep in mind. Follow the process below to get perfect whipped cream at home.

3. Add the cream and confectioner’s/powdered sugar to the bowl of the mixer (if you are using a stand mixer) or a big bowl and whisk it together at high speed until you attain a light, airy and foamy texture.

4. Once you attain the desired texture, add vanilla or cocoa essence to add flavour to it. You can also add some spices of your choice to add more flavours to it.

5. Once you are done adding the flavouring ingredients, mix well to combine everything together. Then, serve it immediately or refrigerate it in a sealed container for up to an hour or two.

Now that you know how to ace making whipped cream at home, you don’t have to deal with a or liquidy whipped cream anymore.
