Why Use Whipped Cream Cartridges?
Have you ever found yourself in the kitchen away from a café with a jug of heavy cream, and wondered how they had that perfect swirl? The answer isn’t magic; it’s whipped cream cartridges! These small cylinders containing food-grade nitrous oxide are the easiest way to turn standard cream into fluffy whipped cream in only seconds.
At CreamJet, we have taken the fuss out of using whipped cream cartridges by ensuring they fit standard cream whippers, they give consistent results, and they come straight to your door fast.
What do I need?
- Your cream siphon/whipper
- 1 CreamJet whipped cream cartridge
- 250ml cold heavy whipping cream
- 1–2 tablespoons sugar or sweetener of choice
- Optional: vanilla extract, cocoa powder, or spices
How to make whipped cream: Step by step
- Step 1 – Fill the siphon – Pour cold heavy whipping cream into your dispenser and add however much sugar or flavouring you want. Don’t overfill!
- Step 2 – Attach the cartridge – Put a CreamJet cartridge into the holder and twist until you hear the hissing voice of the gas being released.
- Step 3 – Shake it – A few firm shakes will help the nitrous oxide(more air) combine with the cream.
- Step 4 – Dispense upside down – Siphon care nozzle pointing downwards-push the lever and out comes smooth airy whipped cream, ready for cake, or hot drinks, or fresh berries.
That’s it. In less than a minute, you’ve got homemade whipped cream without the arm workout.
Heavy Cream vs Heavy Whipping Cream
People often ask: is heavy cream the same as heavy whipping cream? In short: yes, they’re almost the same. Both are generally near 36% fat – that’s just right for whipping. The most important thing to remember is that it must be cold – the warmer the cream, the poorer the whipping performance.
