Try not to let it happen again. I've been here tapping my foot since 5:30 in anticipation and confusion. Glad you cleared that up, sleepy head. |

I rarely put sugar in whipped cream, and when I do, it is just the barest pinch. cream itself has a sweet taste, and I feel it should be the texture/flavor that is a complement, not to overwhelm |

I use cream to make chocolate a lot--it really doesn't need much sugar added. When I do add sugar, it's about a tsp, maybe two per pint--depends on the dish, of course. Cream really doesn't need much...

![]() Sounds painful. I think I'd pass that particular traidition on to someone else in the family circle. Let another carry that torch for awhile. ![]() Nah, then you'd miss out on the kudos. ![]() Nevermind. |
