how much sugar do I add to whipping cream?

Question

like by the ounce or litre or however you know, cause I'm clueless! Thanks!

Answer 1

You should only use superfine sugar (also called berry sugar) when making whipped cream. It disolves the best. Also don't add it at the beginning but half way through. Also adding 1 teaspoon ofvanilla cuts down the amount of sugar needed. I put 3 tablespoons per two cups of whipped cream and this is when I add vanilla as well.

Answer 2

It depends on your own tastes.
I don't add much sugar to allow for the cream flavor to still dominate the whipped cream.

Answer 3

For an 8 oz. carton (half-pint), I usually do about 2 Tbsp. of superfine sugar, once whipped to very soft peaks. Add a touch of vanilla, too.

Answer 4

I add about 1/4 cup of icing sugar to a little container of cream..I think it is a cup in the little containers.

Answer 5

Whipping cream is not sweet unless you help it. You can sweeten to taste, but make sure you use powered sugar, not granulated. Made this mistake once, many monsoon seasons ago.

Answer 6

Always use icing sugar, it dissolves completely in the cream, you are left with a beautiful silky smooth cream not grainy

Answer 7

use confectioners sugar not regular sugar, for 1 qt of cream about 2 teaspoons, you can taste and adjust of course, this sugar works better because it melts and isn't granulated which doesn't mix well

Answer 8

What are you trying to make? Whipped cream? Mousse? Coffee?

4 tablespoons a cup
