There are many different ways to make stabilize whipped cream. I like using gelatin to set the whipped cream. You won’t even know it’s stabilized other than it will stay firm up to 24 hours!
INGREDIENTS YOU WILL NEED….
- Heavy whipping cream

The process of sprinkling gelatin powder over cold water and letting it sit for a few minutes is known as “blooming.” Don’t skip this step or you could end up with lumps in your stabilized whipped cream.
Chill mixing bowl in freezer for 15 minutes prior to whipping and make sure your whipping cream is really cold!
