- 1/4 cup Chopped Cantaloupe

Instructions
MAKING HOMEMADE WHIPPED CREAM
- Let's begin by preparing our very own homemade whipping cream. Assemble ingredients.
- Before you start chill blade and bowl in the refrigerator for an hour.
- Pour heavy cream or whipping cream to the chilled bowl..
- Mix in sugar...
- Turn the mixer or hand blender to a medium speed and start whipping the cream. Within 2- 3 minutes, the cream will start to get frothy and thicken up, keep mixing. All I need is a soft peak, so I whipped it for another 2-3 minutes and the whipped cream increased in volume and was very airy and thick.
- To check if the whipped cream has the right consistency - remove the whisk/blender from the mixer/base. Turn it upside down and if the whipped cream maintains its soft peak firmly without falling off the blade - it's ready to use and is perfect.
- Whipped cream is all ready.
- Place it in the refrigerator to chill.
- Put a dollop of whipped cream on fresh fruits and serve chilled.
ADD FRUITS
- Chop fruits. If using canned fruits, drain their liquid.
- Add whipped cream to a bowl.
- You can even use a can of mixed fruit cocktail and skip fresh fruits.
- Mix in all the chopped fruits and add canned fruit syrup. Since I was doing the Independence day theme, I mixed all the other fruits in the cream and saved cantaloupe and grapes to give it an Indian flag look.
- Fruit cream is ready. Keep it in the refrigerator and serve it chilled.
