Tip: Homemade whipped cream is an indulgent treat that elevates even the simplest of desserts, but it often falls flat or becomes watery within a few hours of your hard work. To extend the life of your whipped cream, we recommend adding a stabilizer like Dr. Oetker’s Whip It. By adding Whip It into your whipping cream before beating, your whipped cream will stay stiff for hours without separating or becoming watery.
