whipped topping?

Question

What is the white topping used to decorate cheesecakes etc...

Answer 1

"Real" cheesecake - not the kind with graham cracker crust - has a thin layer of sour cream spread on the top before baking.

Answer 2

Hi !!!!
Usually whipped cream is piped on top of the whole cheesecake or it is placed on the individual serving. Here are some choices for you using different flavors:

Making Excellent Whipped Cream

Quick tips:

To get the fullest whipped cream, start with a chilled bowl and utensils. The cream should be cold too.
Whether you're beating by hand or with an electric beater, make sure not to overbeat. You'll end up with butter!
You can make your whipped cream up to 4 hours ahead of time. Just cover and keep in the fridge until you need it.

For all variations, whip the cream and other ingredients until the soft peaks stage. Liquids should be folded in after your cream is whipped.

Vanilla Whipped Cream
2 cups whipping cream
3 tbs vanilla sugar

You can make your own vanilla sugar:
Fill a large container with plain, white sugar (8 cups). Stick one whole vanilla bean into the center. Put a tight lid on the container and let it sit for at least 2 weeks. You can use this flavoured sugar in any of your baking recipes, and the vanilla bean can be reused.

Espresso Whipped Cream
1 cup whipping cream
3 tbs brown sugar
1 tsp vanilla extract
1 tsp espresso powder

Coffee Whipped Cream
1/2 cup whipping cream
2 tbs sugar
1 tbs instant coffee crystals

Cinnamon Whipped Cream
1 cup whipping cream
3 tbs icing sugar
1 tsp ground cinnamon

Kahlua Whipped Cream
1 cup whipping cream
1/2 cup icing sugar
3 tbs Kahlua

Chocolate Whipped Cream
1 cup whipping cream
3 tbs icing sugar
2 tbs cocoa powder
1/2 tsp creme de cacao

Answer 3

It could be a couple of things.
Royal Icing, Butter Cream, or Cream Cheese frosting. I'm sure there are mor out there. It depends on the maker, but if you are making a cheese cake and want to decorate it, get yourself a pastry bag and an icing tip. You can find them at any restaurant supply store, high end grocery store, sometimes the cookware section in a department store, williams and sonoma or Michaels will have choices for you to choose from.

As for my favorite, I don't like anything on top of my cheesecake, but royal icing works nicely for a simple piped look. You wont get any fancy flowers as you would with a butter cream or cream cheese frosting, but it also wont take away from the flavor of the cheesecake either.

Or you can make a whipped cream using bakers cream and fold in some stiffly beaten egg whites and use a pastry bag with a star tip to get the height and flowers you are looking for. But again go and get yourself a cake decorating kit. You can play from there.

Answer 4

Most likely you are referring to Stabalized Whipped Cream. This lasts longer then regular whipped cream and being somewhat stiffer.. you can do some limited decorating with it. The gelatin is what makes the difference.

Ingredients:

GELATIN:
2 tablespoons cold water.
1 teaspoon unflavored gelatin

Prepare gelatin:

1. Soak plain gelatin in cold water for 5 minutes.
2. Dissolve by placing it in a container over a small pot of simmering water. Let cool.

WHIPPED CREAM: (or Reduced-Fat Whipped Cream Recipe)
2 cups (1 pint) chilled whipping cream
1 teaspoon vanilla extract or 1 tablespoon dark rum or any flavored liqueur
1-2 tablespoons sugar (or, brown sugar. Best paired with cakes & desserts that have brown sugar in the ingredients)

Prepare whipped cream:

1. Using an electric mixer, beat cream in a large well-chilled bowl.
2. Just before it becomes soft and billowy, slowly add the sugar and flavorings to the whipped cream at the sides of the bowl. Continue to whip as you do.
3. Whip the cream until barely stiff
4. Add melted and cooled gelatin all at once to cream during whipping.
5. Stop whipping when cream forms soft peaks. Finish beating with whisk to adjust consistency.
6. Serve immediately or cover and refrigerate.

Tips:

1. For 1 cup of cream use 1/2 teaspoon gelatin soaked in 1 tablespoon cold water.
2. For 2 cups of cream use 1 teaspoon gelatin soaked in 2 tablespoons cold water.
3. For 6 cups of cream use 1 tablespoon soaked in 1/4 cup plus 2 tablespoon cold water.

NOTE: Stabilized whipped cream can be flavored, but do it as soon as possible before the gelatin sets. It can also be color, but only pastels if using liquid color.
