Are you a coffee lover? Coffee has become a daily habit for many people. For some, their breakfast is not complete without coffee. Some people buy a cup of coffee on their way to work. Coffee is also great while eating your favorite dessert while having a good conversation with a friend. You don’t have to drink coffee the same way. Why don’t you jazz up things a little bit and try something different with your coffee?

You might already have a preference. Like some people prefer flat whites while others would like their drinks strong with espresso. You don’t have to totally change your coffee variant to something you have never tried before.

But sometimes adding an extra ingredient into your coffee once in a blue moon can give a fresh change to your usual coffee routine. Why not try it with whipped cream?

Aside from whipped cream, there are other toppings you can put to improve your coffee. Let’s compare them one by one.

Steps in Making Whipped Cream

Among all of these ingredients, let’s give whipped cream the spotlight. Here are the steps on how you can make your whipped cream to put in your coffee.

Step 1: Pour the whipping cream into the mixing bowl

Chill the cream in the refrigerator until you're ready to whip it. When the cream is ready, measure it into the bowl of a metal bowl. If you like some more flavor, you can add vanilla.

Step 2: Start whipping

Increase your whisking speed to medium and start whipping. At first, the cream will be very frothy.

Step 3: Watch for the “soft plop” stage (4 to 5 minutes)

After whisking the cream and you begin to see trails in the cream that don’t quickly dissolve, then that is what is called the “soft plop” stage.

When you start to see trails in the cream that don't immediately dissolve after the whisk moves, you've reached what's called "soft plop" stage. If you lift your whisk out of the bowl, the whipped cream will barely hold to the beater.

Step 4: Watch for soft peaks (6 to 7 minutes)

When the trails in the cream begin to hold its shape, this is already the "soft peak" stage. At this point, you can already put the whipping cream in your coffee.

Step 5: Continue whisking for 7 to 8 minutes

Keep on whisking for 7 to 8 minutes up to the point when the cream becomes stiffer and begins to have volume. The cream will form a stiff peak that holds its shape with a sharp edge. You can already top it on coffee.

Step 6: Watch for firm peaks (8 to 9 minutes)

When you whisk the cream longer, it will become stiffer and grainy. If you lift the beater out of the cream, the peaks will be totally stiff. After whisking for more than 9 minutes, the cream will turn to butter.

Step 7: Top on coffee

After achieving the right state of whipped cream, top your coffee with whipping cream.

There you have it! Now you know how you can make your whipped cream so that your coffee will taste much, much better. It is essential that you monitor the number of minutes so that you will get the perfect texture for your whipped cream.
