Healthy Nature

Around the holidays, whipped cream is something that seems to find itself hanging around the kitchen quite a bit. From topping tons of delicious pies to put a generous helping on a steaming mug of rich hot chocolate, this light and airy creamy topping can be used in so many ways.

Unfortunately, whipped cream, especially whipped topping that comes in those large tubs, are filled with chemicals, artificial flavors, fillers, and preservatives. Thankfully, there are some great organic and non-GMO options on the market if you know what to look for in the supermarket!

Let’s take a peek at the best organic and non-GMO whipped cream brands, so you can get to eating all of those yummy treats with a little less worry.

Truwhip

If you are looking for a whipped topping and do not want to use that conventional brand known for its laundry list of ingredients and chemical concoctions, look no further than Truwhip. Truwhip is Non-GMO Project Verified, contains no high fructose corn syrup, hydrogenated oils, or gluten. They make a vegan option as well. Truwhip contains far fewer ingredients than its conventional counterpart and they do not use any toxic ingredients.

This whipped cream is a great option because it is not like whipped topping and is made from real cream and milk as the main ingredients. This option is made with organic ingredients like organic cream, organic milk, and organic sugar.

365 Real Dairy Whipped Cream

This brand is Whole Foods 365 line of products that are known for being affordable and high-quality. This whipped cream is made from natural and organic ingredients such as organic cream, organic milk, organic cane sugar, and real organic vanilla extract. It has a great natural vanilla flavor and the organic ingredients make this option a true win.

Homemade Whipped Cream

When in doubt about the ingredients in whipped cream you buy at the store, making your own whipped cream at home could not be any simpler. Whipped cream takes three easy to find ingredients:

• Organic heavy whipping cream
• Organic powdered sugar
• Organic vanilla extract

The keys to making fluffy whipped cream are to ensure your heavy whipping cream is icy cold straight from the fridge and your bowl and whisk as also chilled. This will make the whipped cream come together quickly and ensure fluffy pillowy peaks. You can also make you whipped cream however sweet you want. You can opt for super sweet to completely unsweetened!

The only way you can screw up making whipped cream at home is to overwhip it because it will turn into butter. Although, we don’t think that’s a total fail anyway!
