Advantages Of Whipped Cream Dispensers

By Ethel Harris


Desserts can be the best part of the meal. Most people would have it, if given the chance. However, preparing them would take a lot of time. Getting ready to consume products that are ready to eat would be costly, and they do not offer freedom to choose the ingredients. The arrival of whipped cream dispensers have changed that.

Dairy products have a lot of finished materials. Milk, when processed and homogenized, would produce cream. This is taken from its fatty layer. People have learned that beating them would produce a rich frothy texture. The amount of beating must be right. Too much of it would produce butter and liquid buttermilk. The former is harder and would not have the frothy characteristic that could make it flexible for sweet desserts. There are variations on what the product is called. Some would call it creme chantilly but they are all basically the same. The only difference is that creme chantilly has sweeteners added.

Those steering clear of excess calories may notice that these products are made from fatty ingredient. The fat is necessary for the mixture of gas and production of a frothy mixture. However, when it is in its whipped state, there is a significantly lower calorie. This is because half the size of what is consumed is already gas. The added volume would trick the body into feeling full. One can still get health benefits from it with the right amount of serving.

The process of beating the cream was formerly done by using a fork, whisk, or electric mixer. However, the introduction of these gadgets have made the task easier. One would only have to place the mixture inside it, place a charger, a little shaking, and it is done. Most of these dispensers are made of stainless steel and aluminum. Those that are made of stainless steel are often found in large commercial restaurants while aluminum would be great for home kitchens.

A charger would have to be used with the dispenser. It contains nitrous oxide which is compressed inside a cylinder that is strong enough to withstand the pressure. When this is placed on the dispenser, nitrous oxide is forced inside. This gas mixes well with the contents and help inhibit growth of bacteria therefore prolonging shelf life which could be as long as two weeks if stored in a refrigerator.

These chargers should be used with the right dispenser. Some use a charger directly without them. This is not safe and highly discouraged. It also affects the texture of the finished mixture and is never the same with those that are properly made.

These dispensers have made creation of desserts not just faster but also more enjoying. One would get to choose and experiment with different ingredients they could find in their kitchens. Cleanliness of the procedure in creating recipes is also guaranteed.

Aside from food products, there are other fun products one can create with these tools. Using ordinary kitchen ingredients such as vegetables or fruits, one can create body moisturizers, hair products, and shaving cream with the use of these dispensers. This could provide a healthier and cheaper option. One may also make sauces and carbonated drinks with them.

There are so many uses of whipped cream dispensers. The whole household would surely enjoy the different desserts that can be made through them. All that would be possible in the shortest amount of time.
