Whipped cream without sugar

Unsweetened whipped cream is a light and fluffy dairy ingredient obtained by whipping high-fat cream until soft peaks form, without adding sugar or other sweeteners. It is highly valued in cooking and baking for its airy texture that adds volume and smoothness to desserts, fruits, coffees, and beverages.

The origin of whipped cream dates back to the European tradition of working with fresh dairy products, particularly in France and Italy, where it was incorporated to enhance the texture and presentation of various dishes. Today, it is a staple in global cuisine, especially in the preparation of pies, mousses, and as an accompaniment to fresh fruits.

Regarding its properties, unsweetened whipped cream is rich in healthy fats that provide energy and help improve the absorption of fat-soluble vitamins (A, D, E, and K). Furthermore, as it contains no added sugar, it is an ideal option for those looking to control their calorie intake or reduce their sugar consumption.

In different Latin American countries, this ingredient may also be known as unsweetened whipped cream, unsweetened chantilly cream, or simply plain whipped cream. Although the terminology varies, it always refers to unsweetened whipped cream, ready to be used in recipes that require an airy and smooth texture without added sweetness.
