]]>Heavy cream is a great ingredient to have on hand in general, and a carton of it is by volume much cheaper than a can of already-whipped cream. If you have some in the house, you can simply portion out as much as you want and whip that much fresh, without buying both whipped cream and heavy cream.
The great thing about whipping your own cream is that you get to decide what it tastes like. Want it less sweet? You decide how much sugar or syrup to add. Want to flavor it for whatever you’re making? Add some spices or colors as needed. Want a softer whip to top a drink without the full peaks? Don’t whip it for as long. It’s up to you how your whipped cream tastes, looks, and feels.
Whipping cream is pretty easy-just use a big whisk and whip as quickly as possible for a minute or so. But you’ll find that as you do this more often, your whisking technique will build and you’ll get better at using a whisk in general. Alternatively, you can use an electric hand mixer, which will also help you learn to whisk eggs for meringues as well as other things.

]]>Fortunately, it really isn’t difficult to make your own homemade whipped cream. In fact, it’s possible with only three ingredients! Here’s how you can do it.
Start off by placing a large bowl along with a whisk inside of your freezer for thirty minutes. This will allow them to cool down, as the environment for making whipped cream must be cold.
Next, pour the heavy cream, the powdered sugar, and the vanilla extract into the cold bowl. Now, the hard work begins! Whisk the three ingredients together vigorously until a creamy, fluffy substance forms. It shouldn´t be a liquid, as the cold bowl will help the substance turn into a light cream substance.
Now, your whipped cream is finished! Place it covered in the refrigerator and use it within about two days. Enjoy!

First, make sure your siphon and all its parts are clean. Take a fresh charger, which is cheap to buy, and place it into the node in the top of the canister. It should fit perfectly. You have to change the charger every time you use the siphon, because there’s only enough nitrogen gas for 1 liter of liquid.
Then, pour in whatever liquids you want to use for your foam. If you want to make simple whipped cream, just pour in heavy cream, confectioners’ sugar, and vanilla.
Secure the top of the siphon and add the piping tip to the handle of the tool.
Then, shake the contents of the bottle for at least 1-2 minutes, so the gas can cool the liquid and turn it into a slight solid.
Then, tilt the dispenser down as vertically as you can, and squeeze the handle to release the foam.
