Re: Whipping cream ..

i use double cream and icing sugar for making it at home. beat it in a metal bowl placed in another large bowl full of ice cubes and water (chilled). BUT i use an electric beater

Re: Whipping cream ..

You can use double cream, with a normal whisk. Will take about 10-15mins but it can still be done. Never tried it with single cream.

I made Eton Mess earlier on in the week. Some of the cream, I kept aside and used crushed strawberries for flavouring. Just experiment a bit. You will be sick of cream:cb: but atleast you will know what works and what not.

Re: Whipping cream ..

Single cream doesn't work. Double cream is best for whipping but if ur gonna whip with a hand whisk ur arm is gonna kill. Invest in a electric whisk.

@proto - what is the point of the ice cubes?

Re: Whipping cream ..

what are you making?
