There are SO many methods out there for making Stabilized Whipped Cream, but which one is actually the best? Find out how to make 8 of the most common recipes. I test each one for taste and texture, then put them to the test to see which would survive longest in a 90°F / 32°C room.

Most of them failed miserably, but one whipped cream managed to last without melting. Watch to find out which one!

*Disclaimer: cream is a perishable dairy product. Even if the whipped cream is stabilized, it will spoil if held at room temperature for longer than 2-3 hours and potentially even quicker at higher temperatures. For long term storage and safety, it is recommended to keep whipped cream in a sealed container at or below 40°F/4°C. Once cream has been left out, it cannot be refrigerated and reused. Use discretion -- when in doubt, throw it out.
The test in this video is solely meant to find the theoretical longevity of stabilized whipped cream and is meant to be used as reference information. Don't replicate at home.
