Whipping cream is a dairy product made from the high-fat part of milk. It contains at least 30% milk fat, which allows it to be whipped into a light, fluffy texture. This cream is commonly used in desserts, such as cakes and pies, and can also be added to beverages like coffee for a rich flavor. When whipped, whipping cream increases in volume and can be sweetened or flavored to enhance its taste. It is often used as a topping for desserts or incorporated into recipes for sauces and soups, adding creaminess and richness to various dishes.
