Storage Details
Pour any extra into a jar or other food-safe container of your choice.
- Whipped cream will keep well in the refrigerator, covered, for up to 5 days.
- If the mixture has separated, gently whisk it back together with a balloon whisk or fork.
- Homemade whipped cream loses some volume over time, so you may need to lightly whip it again to achieve the original texture.
