Homemade flavored whipped cream: the trick for an intense taste
Homemade flavored whipped cream: the trick for an intense taste
Homemade whipped cream is already delicious… but flavored whipped cream adds that extra “wow” factor. Here's the simple method to achieve a perfect texture and a strong fragrance.
The 2 golden rules
- Everything must be very cold : cream + mixing bowl + whisks.
- Add the sugar at the right time : when the cream starts to thicken, not at the beginning.
Ingredients (for approximately 4 servings)
- 20 cl of very cold, full-fat liquid cream
- 1 to 1.5 tablespoons of flavored sugar (depending on the desired intensity)
Step-by-step recipe
- Place the mixing bowl and whisks in the freezer for 10 minutes (or in the fridge for 30 minutes).
- Pour in the very cold cream and begin whipping at medium speed.
- When the cream thickens (soft texture), add the flavored sugar .
- Continue whipping until you obtain a firm whipped cream, without over-whipping.
The trick for a more intense flavor
Add the flavored sugar when the cream starts to thicken : The fragrance is distributed better and remains more present in the mouth. (If you add it too early, it will "dilute" and the taste will seem lighter.)
Which flavors should I choose?
- Vanilla : perfect on fruit, waffles, gourmet coffee
- Toasted hazelnut : incredible on hot chocolate, crepes, brownies
- Tiramisu : the “signature dessert” effect in 10 seconds
- Lemon : great with red berries, pavlova, cheesecake
