This vegan whipping cream is so delicious and simple to make! The key is to find the right coconut cream- that will actually work. I’ve tried it many times and this recipe below works like a charm!
For chocolate whip cream add 1 tablespoon unsweetened coconut powder.For pink whip cream add 1 tablespoon fruit powder.
Chill coconut cream in the fridge for a minimum of four hours. Chilling overnight is best.
Place a large mixing bowl in the freezer for 20 minutes before whipping.
Carefully remove the coconut cream from the top of the can leaving the liquid behind.*Please note if the coconut cream did not harden in the fridge. The can did not have enough fat content. When this happens, you can add a bit of tapioca flour, approximately 2 tablespoons during the whipping process and this might work. I’ve had it happen a few times and this has helped me but not always- just being honest!
Place the refrigerated coconut cream into your chilled mixing bowl and use a hand mixer. Whip for approximately 30 seconds to 1 minute.
1 can coconut cream
Then add vanilla and powdered sugar and beat for another 30 seconds.*It is so important to avoid over whipping because this can cause separation.
1 tbsp powdered sugar, ½ tsp vanilla
This serves up to six people. You can use it immediately or refrigerate overnight.

Cooking Tips
Go for quality brands – Not all coconut creams whip well. Savoy or Thai Kitchen are usually reliable.
Don’t skip the chill time – Both the can and bowl need to be very cold for best results.
Serve smart – This cream pairs beautifully with fresh berries, vegan cakes, or even your morning coffee.
