Stabilized Whipped Cream For Frosting Cakes Recipes

Steps:

• Chill mixing bowl and beaters for at least 15 minutes before using. Place water in a small microwave-safe bowl. Sprinkle gelatin over water and allow to soften 5 minutes.
• Dissolve gelatin by microwaving for 3 minutes, stirring after every minute. Remove from microwave and let stand at room temperature for 10 minutes; gelatin must be liquid but not warm when added to cream.
• Remove bowl and beaters from refrigerator and pour in cream, sugar, and vanilla extract. Beat together just until beater marks begin to show distinctly.
• Add gelatin mixture to cream, pouring in a steady stream while beating constantly. Beat until stiff peaks form. Use immediately.

Steps:

• Add gelatin to cold water in a bowl.
• Set this over a saucepan with boiling water until the gelatin is clear.
• Cool to room temperature.
• Meanwhile whip the cream until it is medium thick.
• With the mixer still on, pour gelatin into the center of the cream.
• Continue to whip. Add the powdered sugar and vanilla extract.
• Continue whipping until cream is in soft peaks.
• At this point you can add food coloring or use as is.
• Frost cake or cupcakes.

Steps:

• In a small pan, combine gelatin and cold water; let stand until thick.

• Remove from heat; cool (do not allow it to set).
• Whip the cream with the icing sugar, until slightly thick.
• While slowly beating, add the gelatin to whipping cream.
• Whip at high speed until stiff.
