Yes, you really can freeze whipped cream. In fact, it may be one of the best ways to preserve the food if you have leftovers.

There is obvious pleasure in plain ol’ whipped cream, be it dolloped over a mousse or pie, smothered with hot fudge and sprinkles, or squirted from a Reddi-Wip tube straight into a gaping mouth.

Whipped cream is the perfect topper for everything from coffee to pumpkin pie. One classic canned brand stands above the rest thanks to its flavor and texture.
