I'm really not a complete dolt, but I dont know much about this stuff. So, if I buy a carton of heavy cream, how much splenda do I add if I want to make it whipped cream? Can I freeze what I dont use (like cool whip)?

And, what is an isi whipper??? Im sure I need one.

i just make it as i need it since i prefer it as fresh as possible. i make a cup at a time and start with a couple of tbs of splenda with a drop of stevia and a couple of drops of vanilla. the splenda part you really have to taste it to see how sweet you want it im not sure if there's a one answer for all to this question. as for the isi whipper i haven't a clue what that is lol...gltu

I take a couple of ounces of whipping cream (heavy cream) and add a little splenda at a time into a mixer until it thickens up -- not sure on exact amounts of splenda but watch the amount of cream you use it can add up your calories. HOpe this helps.

Mine never turns out correctly. I mix with a mixer but it still never "forms", it comes out not running, but not thick, anybody have any tips?

I think the whipper is one of those restaurant-quality pressurized metal thingys....

If you can buy a magic bullet. Works perfect every time!

For whipping cream, pour some cold cream into a metal or glass dish and beat it with a hand mixer until soft peaks form, then sprinkle some Splenda in (and add vanilla if you want) and keep tasting and adding until you're happy with the results

For regular whipped cream I can get by with 1 packet of sweetener per 1/2 C. For chocolate, I use 2.

Make sure your hand-mixer is on the highest speed. You can also put the bowl and the beaters in the freezer for a while just beforehand, but I've never found this necessary.

Add sweetener right at the last.

I add the sweetener at the very beginning, before mixer even goes into it. Just dump it all in a mix it up on high speed. Make sure the bowl isn't too big for your amount. Just remembered it might be harder to whip if the bowl is too big?

So, can you freeze what you dont use?

No, I don't think so.

ditto, i have one and it's great!

I'd also like to point out that having a bowl that is too small is bad for the state of your kitchen. (Unless white dots go with your decor!)
