Ever since I found out that whipped cream is just heavy cream that’s beaten, I’ve been going to it instead of the canned stuff. And recently I’ve gotten into whipped coconut cream, which is just what it sounds like: (chilled) coconut cream that’s whipped up; so good!
Ohh, whipped coconut cream sounds delish. I will have to try it! I will also have to try some of the recipes on your blog. Crepe cake, homemade granola, oh my!
