While you’re making some food or drinks, sometimes it would require certain ingredients, where in this case, it would be whipping cream. Usually, people would use this cream as a decoration or garnish for their food, so that they would be pleasing to look at. Perhaps you have ever wondered, on how whipping cream was first invented. Well on this occasion, we will be talking about the history and how you can use whipping cream.
Whipping cream was first recorded in history during the 16th century. This cream was written down in recipes by some figures, such as Cristoforodi Messisbugo in 1549, Bartolomeo Scappi in 1570, and Lancelot de Casteau in 1604. A 1545 English recipe also had its own recipe for this cream, but they called it as A Dyschefull of Snow, and it was made from egg whites, rose water and sugar. Whipping cream used to be called as milk snow, as the color and texture reminds people of snow.
Due to limited tools from that time, people used to make whipping cream using willow tree branches or Juncaceae as whisks. It was not until 19th century, that machines to mix whipping cream were invented, making it easier for people to make them. We can also make them using whisk or even mixer.
Usually, before being used as a food topping, whipping cream would be made as a whipped cream first. Whipping cream is the base for whipped cream, making them essentially the same cream. To get a whipped version, you would have to whisk it well, which would increase the amount of fat in milk, which then contributes to the creamy texture of a whipped cream.
Because of its beautiful appearance, whipped cream is usually used as a decoration or garnish for various types of pastries, such as cakes, pancakes, cupcakes, and many more. Aside from pastries, this cream is also often used as a topping for drinks. Most of the time, you would be able to find them being used as a topping for coffee or milkshake. The combination of soft and sweet cream will give out a creamy sensation in your mouth.
You can even use this cream to make sundae, and they are very simple to make too. All you need to do is put on the toppings that you like on the whipped cream that you have prepared, and then put it inside a freezer, before it can finally be enjoyed.
