Oh, ‘Dita - I miss my mom too, hunny!!
My best friend (who I am caring for post surgery, here at my house), can tell the difference, too. I have tried to sneak in the ‘spray out of a can’ whipped cream, and that frozen stuff in plastic containers, and she always knows.
So, out comes the electric mixer, and the ‘heavy cream’ that comes in a small carton (for $10 - lol) and the sugar dispenser, and make the REAL stuff. (And, you know what? It really IS much better!)
Our Moms knew......................didn’t they?
Yes, they knew... a lot. And they took much of that ‘knowin’ with them. My mother was so funny the way she scoffed, “but it’s not REAL whipped cream.” My earlier post was a tribute to her...:-)
Oooh, I haven’t checked the price on that heavy cream in a while. Bless you for doing that for your friend...(((hugs))). I think you don’t add sugar until towards the end?
