Whipping Cream

Whipping cream

  If you want to decorate your cake with whipping cream do try once/twice before you actually wanna decorate the cake you are planning to prepare for birthday/anniversary/any party. Follow  below tips when you prepare whipping cream.Sometimes after following the tips also you might not get it properly because of over beating.If you don't wanna take any risk/lazy to prepare still you want to use whipping cream for icing get store bought ready to use whipping cream.All you have to do is just spread it on the cake evenly. :)

Measurements:
heavy whipping cream - 1 cup
powdered/icing sugar(sifted) : 1/3 - 1/2 cup(as per your taste)

Cake size: Above measurements are good for 9 inch cake(only for top coating).

Tips:
 1) Refrigerate the bowl and the whisks of the hand/stand mixer for 15-20 min before you start.
 2) Bowl,whisk and whipping cream - everything should be very cold.

Process:

1) Beat whipping cream for few seconds using hand mixer/stand mixer.
2) Add the sifted powdered sugar and beat again.
3) Don't over beat it. If you over beat, cream turns into butter. 
4)When you think its almost done use a hand whisk and beat the cream because you can control the consistency with a hand whisk sometimes overbeating just for 10 sec using a hand mixer would result in butter. So, do use your hand whisk when you think its almost done.
5) Spread the icing using a spatula evenly on the cake.Refrigerate it once done.
