Chef's Tip

*Place bowl and whisk attachment into the freezer to chill. This ensures the heavy cream stays cold and whips up properly.

*For maximum volume and smoother texture, ensure heavy cream is cold (straight from the fridge, if possible) when whipped.

*Use as a spread on scones, toast, or to garnish fresh summer berries.
