Don’t tell me that, as a kid, you didn’t enjoy eating bowls of plain whipped cream.
What? You didn’t? It was just me?
Especially around Thanksgiving, I could’ve done without the pies. Just give me the heavy cream and nobody’d get hurt. Therefore, I am head-over-heels in love with this recipe. It’s light, airy, and… creamy!
It’s the perfect substitute for heavy cream on top of pie, ice cream, or a parfait.
Cream for breakfast?
You can even try this in the Voluminous Oatmeal Recipe.
Or just eat the entire bowl straight-up, as I like to do!
.
Soy-Free Vegan Cream
(Makes 1 1/2 cups: one Katie-sized serving!)
- sweetener of choice
- 1/16th tsp salt
- 1 1/2 T water (20g)
- 1/2 serving agar base (see below)
- 3 drops coconut extract (Optional, but highly recommended)
- optional: cocoa or fruit (for flavored cream)
Instructions: First, make up the agar base. When it’s cooled, put half of it in a blender (or Magic Bullet) with all the other ingredients and blend away. Whip very well. I like to put it in the freezer for a few minutes prior to eating, so it’s super-cold. Optional: add fruit, cacao nibs, cocoa powder, or other add-ins.
Nutritional Info:
(for the entire bowl!)
Calories: 60
Fat: 3g
Protein: 2g
Carbohydrates: 3g
Want a version without agar? Try this: Coconut Cool Whip.
Uses for the Vegan Cream: Pour over berries, pie (pumpkin pie?!), waffles, or you can even eat it plain.
Or try it over pancakes, such as my Strawberry Shortcake Pancakes.
(That’s soyatoo in the photo, but you get the idea)

i’d love to make smoothies in my magic bullet
i follow you on twitter
i subscribed via email
If I won you Magic Bullet Thanks Giveaway I would make banana soft serve! I can’t make it in the cheap/weak blender that I have. Yum!
I’m also following you on Twitter (@megangilson9).
I’ll make smoothies, iced coffee drinks, banana ice cream!
I’d be making some pureed salsa because I’m just not into the chunky variety.
If I won the magic bullet, I would continue to make all of the recipes (I’m having so much fun with them right now), the clean up will just be a little easier since it will not be my big food processor
I believe I will make blended oatmeal a la Katie!
If I won the Magic Bullet… I think I would try making almond milk or some of your grain blends for breakfast!
hmm…what to choose. Maybe vega protein shakes:)
I would obviously make your Vegan Cream. And I have been making a lot of Green Monsters lately (spinach, banana, milk smoothies), so this would be perfect!
If I won I’d pretty much make everything! I have a small apartment, with a tiny kitchen so I don’t have room for a lot of kitchen gadgets so this magic bullet would be perfect! I’d make these yummy looking creams, babies, you name it!
Would love to make green monsters and banana butter in the bullet:)
If I won the magic bullet giveaway, I’d whip up some “pumpkin pie” – the remix. Organic canned pumpkin, pecans, dates, and raisins….with a dash of cinnamon. Yum! Thanks for all your great dessert ideas. I, too, have a huge (vegan) sweet tooth!
hmmmm… guacamole? hummus? I have never used one before!!!
My husband is a smoothie fanatic. The magic bullet would be awesome for him!
(PS I follow you on twitter @atomicbunnie)
Oh, so many options! I’m going to go with salad dressings (miso+tahini+other stuff). I usually stir it with a spoon, and it takes forever for the miso and tahini to incorporate into the water.
I would make smoothies, salad dressings, and more…
I’ve been dreaming up this coconut cream pie smoothie. However, all I own is an emersion blender! I need a magic bullet!!!! In my smoothie would be: greek yogurt, coconut butter, and a couple tablespoons of (sugar free) coconut pudding mix (+ ice and almond milk) sprinkled with toasted coconuts and toasted almonds…ummmmm yummmm?!
I’m hoping this is open to the UK as well…
I would make (amongst many others!) alfredo sauce, my own nut butters and mole fudge babies (hot chocolate fudge babies with a hint of chilli, nom nom!)
x
If I won a magic bullet, I would make some CHOCOLATE soy-free vegan whipped cream, and possibly a chocolate pumpkin smoothie to go with it. holy YUM.
Hey Katie! I’d definitely make the vegan cream in my magic bullet. I’d also make these raw soups I’ve been discovering on the net. There’s a mushroom soup that really tastes good to me! I don’t know that I won’t heat it up, though…
I’d also make banana butter, chocolate butter, homemade smoothies, and all sorts of things!
Thank you, just for being you, ma’am!
I’d make everything that can possibly be pureed, mixed, or otherwise combined. Hummus. Fudge babies. Pumpkin/squash/broccoli/any type of pureed soup. Creamy oatmeal. Homemade nutbutters. Protein shakes. The possibilities are endless!
I’d make banana shakes and avocado cream.
I would be making more smoothies if I won the Magic Bullet. I’d make smoothies every day cause I love them!
Pumpkin pudding!
I’d make cashew creams and whipped creams, nut butters… yum.
if i won i’d make any and all sauces and soups! basically though, i’d make anything i could blend up!!!
I would make banana soft serve, chocolate pudding and anything that can be made!!!!!!
Goodness this giveaway is exciting! I was actually going to go to Bed Bath and Beyond on Black Friday to buy a new blender because I broke my old blender trying to make almond butter (which, may I say, turned out into a horrendous mess). As for what I would make with a Magic Bullet, my first choice is homemade larabars! I tried making homemade larabars with my old blender but again, horrendous mess ;p Then of course I would have to go with classic smoothies, dips, vegan pudding, vegan cream, and some other recipes that I’m dying to experiment with!
Ha, I was thinking of how much I’d want a Magic Bullet to be able to make this Vegan Cream! I’ve made it once now in the blender, but it seems like som of it goes to waste because it gets stuck all over the big blenders blades and jar- not to mention I have to use the whole big thing trying to maneuver it and scrape every last bit off becuase I’d hate to see it go down the drain! *gasp*. I’d also try some blended grain reicipes and soups and a whole lot more! Mostly all that stops me from doing recipes is the thought of it getting stuck on the blender bottom and sides and not getting as much (wasting) out of the recipes no matter how much I spatula the sides!.. Speaking of which I just made a Vegan Chocolate Fudge Cake…Should I go and hug it? ;D
Yes!! lol
I’d like to try your vegan soy-free whipped cream … and also some homemade blended soups!
If I had a magic bullet I would have to skip work one day and make every recipe I can. The first thing I would make is a smoothie. Then I go on to make the vegan cheesecake. Oh, and of course I would make some homemade nut butters. I want one sooooooo bad!!
Honestly I have no idea what I would make but I would definitely find every recipe I could and try it out!
I would make baby food.
I would definitely make more oatmeal pancakes, and cauliflower “rice”!
I would make so many different things if I had a Magic Bullet, haha. The closest thing I have to a food processor is a 20 year old blender.
I think the first thing I would make is the vegan cream. I mean, who can resist bowls and bowls of cream?
If i had a magic bullet of my own, i’d make that whipped cream, smoothies, blended oatmeal, and your raw cheesecake. With that whipped cream, i’d top my oatmeal with it, my hot chocolate, and some pumpkin pie this weekend.
I would lOVE to win the Magic Bullet! I can think of tons of things to make with it! First on my list during these Fall days would be a pumpkin moose or pudding. Lately I have been so into pumpkin. I’d mix pumpkin with sugar-free vanilla almond milk, some unsweetended cocao powder, chocolate protein powder, a touch of guar or xantham, sweetener, and voila!
I work on a trading desk and get to work at 6:30 so I would definitely use the magic bullet to make a green monster for breakfast!
Is a Magic Bullet strong enough to make nut butter?
Cause if it is, that’s what I would make.
I actually don’t know… but it can make banana butter!
Everything! Seriously, you and HEAB always have the best recipes using the Magic Bullet that I want to make them ALL.
i’d love to make some single serving blended oatmeal with the MB!
I would make some vegan whipped cream!
Homemade guacamole! I would love to make this! Sadly, I am currently blenderless, but a Magic Bullet would be a fantastic substitute!
very cool…I am definitely going to keep this recipe and try it out. Something I would make in a Magic Bullet would of course be smoothies. Papaya and banana and strawberry smoothies to be exact. We started making them when we spent part of the summer in Guatemala and love them. Here in Maine the fruit is not as fresh as the mercado in Guatemala, but we still do it occasionally. And we are heading back again in June so this would be great to take with us!
Id make chocolate tofu pudding!!
i would make some avocado frosting for my vegan chocolate avocado cake! yummmy but still too lumpy : )

And I subbed by email!
MAGIC BULLET!!!! as a college student….dranks!
If I’m lucky enough to win, I’m definitely trying out one of your fudge baby recipes !
If I win the Magic Bullet, I’ll make myself a pumpkin almond milk smoothie
If I won a magic bullet, I would make banana soft serve
or my vegan mocha mousse recipe!
I would make banana ice cream for my boyfriend in large quantities. And smoothies for us both. And something involving peanut butter for our dog, Jim.
Lots of yummy smoothies!
I would make this recipe or a smoothie with frozen banana, coconut butter, and cacao with the magic bullet! I don’t have a blender so can never make smoothies, you see
If I won the magic bullet, after making a kale, coconut, and raw cacao smoothie, I would definitely try your blended oatmeal. I love that you can blend in the same container you serve it in! So awesome!
I would love to make some soups and smoothies with the magic bullet! I was just thinking the other day how nice it would be to have one!
I would make bunches and bunches of banana-mango smoothies. They’re so great. Also some banana ice cream and whipped cream and mousses. Yum, I’m salivating just thinking about it!!! I really want the magic bullet! I also follow you on Twitter, so I’m not quite sure how the extra vote thing works, but yea, that’s that. =)
babies! lots of fudge babies!!
I’d make THIS!!! I used to have a magic bullet knock off but it broke
I’d love to have the real thing!
I could really use a Magic Bullet tonight. Vegan cream would be wonderful on top of the apple pie that is baking right now
Hmmm, what I would make in my magic bullet…soup??? I think soup. Mmmm.
If I were to win the magic bullet— I would make banana espresso chocolate smoothies! For breakfast- a good alternative to oatmeal
I would be making some almond butter. I have been waiting to try it for a while but do not have a machine to do it with right now
Oh me. Oh my.
I have CRAVED, LUSTED after, and DREAMT about owning a magic bullet.
What would I make in it? Easier to answer what I would not….wait. That would be difficult, too.
So…I guess the very FIRST thing I’s make is a smoothie. A fearless smoothie with lots of stuff my blender just can’t handle.
~Missy
Katie, I would be so so so so happy to win the Magic Bullet. I have been yearning to try your blended oatmeal trick and top it off with the vegan cream!!!
I’ll make smoothies and probably baby food
And I blogged about your giveaway. So now approximately zero more people will have heard about it!
http://atomicbunnie.blogspot.com
I would make vegan chocolate mousse (avocado, maple syrup, and cocoa powder)! Soo good!
I read this post the other day and actually thought, “I wish I had a Magic Bullet to make this!” So….perfect timing!!!!!
I would definitely use it for some green smoothies!
i’d make pumkpin soup!
i’m following you on twitter! @____kelsey
I’ll make a green monster smoothie!! Woot!
This is perfect! I can’t do soy, so all of the “creamy, dairy-free” recipes out there are forbidden. It’s fabulous to find something creamy, sweet, and delicious like this!
A Magic Bullet would be amazing to have at school! I would whip up a batch of avocado chocolate pudding, to start! That’s with an avocoado, agave, a sliver of apple, raw cacao, and warm coconut butter (although not necessary with the avocado- i just love it). Next up would be pureed cinnamon coconut acorn squash!
Well, whipped cream, duh! Then of course my standard smoothies, sandwich spreads and nut pates, nut butters, pesto, super smooth guacamole and hummus, or even a way to cheat at mixing up single lady cupcake batter
magic bullet……… green monster! I still have yet to have one. I need me a blender
i tried to make vegan whipped cream with an immersion blender the other day. um, no dice. with a magic bullet, my creamy whipped dreams would come true! i’d also love to make anything with cashews- ricotta, cream, you name it.
I SO need this – mine just died on me. I would make a pumpkin pie smoothie. With vegan cream on top.
I’d make OREO SMOOTHIES
Forgot to say I also linked back from my blog! http://www.sprint2thetable.com
I want a magic bullet so bad!! I would use it to make smoothies, nut butters, ice cream, etc. The possibilities are endless
i can not tell you how excited I would be to use the magic bullet to make this whipped cream recipe! finally a vegan cream recipe that doesn’t contain nuts! i would also use it to make coconut butter
I’d make hummus. Homemade is the best!
If I won the magic bullet, I would make BANANA BUTTER!
Hi ya Katie… It is so challenging finding all the ingredients and goodies for your recipes were I live! So I would use the MB to make all the recipes you post, and make all the goodies I can’t buy here. It is so CHALLENGING when one can’t go to the store to buys what one needs… so making is the next best thing… But I would need a MB.
Oh my goodness if I had a MB, I could make all your recipes.
Nut butter, whipped cream, smoothies, hummus, salsa, coconut cream, and I could go on, and on…none of these things can be bought here is our stores!
So I would really make good use of a MB, it would be used in my kitchen every day!!!
Thank you so much for all your advice, ideas, recipes and encouragement!!!! There is not much following her or support here, so reading your blog really helps me in trying to live a wholesome sustainable lifestyle… Thank you : )
I would try to make coconut almond butter with it…and smoothies, obviously:)
id love a magic bullet! id make lots of smoothies
mango ice cream.. i accidentally made it once and it was good!
I would love to make banana soft-serve in the magic bullet!
I will make peanut butter. I have just about worn out the motor on my current food processor and I cannot NOT have PB in the house.
Oh WOW I would love to win this magic bullet. Of course, you have numerous recipes I’d love to use it for, but I think I would most commonly use it for magic green smoothies and such, my current blender right now just doesn’t make the cut! I also make a frozen fruit sorbet that I think would work perfectly in this.
Thank you for the shot!
I subscribe to your twitter and email also… no blog though!
So, I have an entire list printed out of what I would make with a magic bullet. It will suffice to say that you and I, Katie, will be living parallel lives in our eating habits!
Smoothies and peanut butter and chocolate chip combos!
If I had a magic bullet the first thing I’d make is carrot cake macaroon babies! When I first found your blog I tried to make fudge babies and my tiny little food processor couldn’t handle the nuts and dates
I’ve been dreaming of baby-making ever since.
I would make…raw chocolate cake =)
I saw a recipe and it called for pulsed nuts and dates..and i kinda can’t do that since I dorm. BUT if I get the magic bullet it would be possiblee!! hooorayyy
Hi Katie,
I love your blog, I’ve been following it for a while now. Like you, I am likely to wind up incorporating some form of chocolate into almost every meal
What I would make in the magic bullet: Simple but blissful – My favorite chocolate banana shake:
Brazil nuts, water, frozen banana, flax or chia meal for thickness, dates or agave nectar (I prefer the vanilla infused agave), and of course 3 tablespoons cocoa powder. I also like to throw in some cinnamon and/or nutmeg. Quick, easy, and delightful – brazil nuts are great for a milky/creamy taste.
If I win the magic bullet: PB and banana shakes all year!
I want to win the Magic Bullet! I would use it to make vegan chocolate mousse. Yum!
If I won a magic bullet I would use it to make smoothies, and whipped cream of course
I follow you on twitter!
I’d love to make smoothies – it would be so easy in a magic bullet!
Yep… I think a big bowl of this is in order. I might make add chocolate. I bought the big thing of cocoa powder when I started reading your blog!
If I won the Magic Bullet, I would use it to make smoothies
and also to blend up frozen bananas and peanut butter into a lovely “ice creamy” treat!
If I win the Magic Bullet I will make this recipe in it! I will also make my post-workout smoothies in it. Yum!
Umm, I will DEFINITELY be making some Fudge Babies with that Magic Bullet! They’re too hard to make in my Vita because it’s so big.
I also will blend up my oatmeal with the MB. 
I followed you.
Oh Magic Bullet….how I have coveted thee!! The infomercial never ceases to draw me in no matter how many times I’ve watched it! There are so many things I would make–from homemade salad dressings to green smoothies to your delicious pumpkin cream mousse!
I hope you have a very happy Thanksgiving!
I would make nut butter in a Magic Bullet! I’ve done some “experimenting” with my VitaMix, but the square-ish shape of the container just does NOT make nut butter-making very easy!
I’ve never used a Magic Bullet but from what I know, they are round, so it would be easier to make nut butter and even fudge babies!
I would make vegan cream, larabars, and some single serve muffins. I have been dying for a Magic Bullet to try your amazing recipes!
I just discovered your site a few days ago, and I LOVE it! I usually just buy similar products to the ones that you make, but your recipes are so easy
Anyway, I would use the magic bullet for the banana/pb mixture…I love both foods so much!
I would use the magic bullet to make the pumpkin cream you just posted today! Yum!
I’d LOVE to win the magic bullet!!! I’d make some of your yummy whipped topping, fruit smoothies, and green smoothies. Shoot! I’d go online and find a new recipe every day for my magic bullet…if I won one
Nellie
http://midlifecruiser.blogspot.com
i’d use a magic bullet to make soups, or try a homemade lara bar! those things are tasty but so expensive
Oh, the things I would make!! My vegan Chocolate Ginger Snap Pie would be first. Then some fresh vegan pesto. My hand blender just doesn’t cut it when it comes to these two dishes! I am getting a bit tired of crushing things by hand!
This sounds so good. I must get agar agar flakes at wf’s today. I want to try the agar pudding idea… I usually just make tofu pudding. I really want a magic bullet, sometimes I just don’t want to clean the food processor!
If I win, I will use the magic bullet to try making “babies” – these look so good, in so many variations, but I do not currently have the equipment to try them!
I would use the MB to make banana/peanutbutter mixture, and to puree bananas for my oatmeal. I would also be able to make smaller amounts of fudge babies. I tend to make a big batch in the food processor because it’s big, and then I eat them all in a day or two. Not the best idea…
i would definitely make banana soft serve – my little blender just doesn’t have the power to do it!
I would make fresh strawberry juice
Not sure where my last comment went! But here goes again
I’d use the magic bullet for your “whipped cream”, fruit smoothies, and the green smoothies I’ve heard so many good things about!
Thanks!!
Nellie
http://midlifecruiser.blogspot.com
Hmmm, I def think I would either make hummus or some ice cream
That’s so funny. I was just telling my husband the other day that I would like a magic bullet. I would definitely use it to chop garlic. I wanted something that I could make a couple of smoothies for the kids. They love it when I make them. I saw that you could use it to make salsa. Yum. I made cashew cream for the first time today and I liked it. I was going to make your cheesecake, but the recipe would not pop up so I used it to make cashew cream. I wonder what you could make with that. Do you have any suggestions?
Must whip the beans, my daily staple. Add veggies, rice, garlic, spice or anything you like! Yum, yum, yum, eat for dinner or for lunch, but don’t forget the beans must be mush! Hummus good, garbanzo : ( . Love the taste, not the texture. That bullet sure would make my lunches from home a “take away breeze”.
yo mrs pretty cocoakattie !! :O
i am now making this whipped cream! 
hehee..
hehe
but instead using soymilk i use 4T coconut cream dissolved in 2 C of water.. i am making huge serving
i cant wait to taste it! i want it super cooollddd haha ;D
u have any idea for my toppings?
cacao nibs! Or layer it in a parfait… or chocolate chips… or whatever else you can dream up
.
Hi Katie,
I tried making cocoa pudding last night. I used 1 1/3 c. almond milk, 2 1/2 tsp. agar agar powder, 1 TBSP cocoa, and a little salt. I brought everything to a boil, let it simmer, then turned off the heat to let it cool a bit. I then poured it into a plastic container and let it cool quite a bit more before I refrigerated it. In the morning, it had solidified/gelled, and it was very dense and hard. I tasted it (tasted awesome!), but the texture was off. I put it in my foodprocessor to see what that would do, and it turned into a mousse. It’s delicious, but I wanted to know how to make it more pudding/yogurt-like. Did I use too much agar agar?
I may try your recipe for vegan creme, but I still wanted your input on this recipe.
Thanks!
Beth
Hey Beth! I’ve actually never used agar powder, only the flakes… so I really have no idea. Sorry I can’t be more helpful!
dang girl! almost had a heart attack b/c it looks so good! haha this is awesome~thanks for the recipe!
Is this suppose to be able to be cut; that solid?
Just tried making this, its 5* Whipped cream! I also made some with my cream whipper and it was no way near as good quality. Need I say more
x
With frozen raspberries and some vegan probiotics, I have yogurt for the first time in over a YEAR! (I’m allergic to dairy, gluten, soy, corn and coconut) THANK YOU!!!!!!!!
Oh wow I’m so excited you tried it… especially with the probiotics!
where do you get agar base?
Hey Katie!
I’ve been reading your blog for some time now, and loving the new products and chemistry-like tricks to which you’ve introduced me.
However, no matter what I do, I cannot seem to make this whipped cream recipe work. The agar base just blends into a gelatin-like pudding, and doesn’t even come close to looking like your pictures.
I was wondering if you had any tips or tricks to help with this problem.
Thanks so much! Again, I love the blog.
Best,
Gabby
Hey Gabby!
I’m so sorry it’s not working for you
. After you let it gel, do you blend it in your blender? After mine turns into a gelatin-looking block (after like a day in the fridge), I put it in a blender and blend til creamy!
What is agar base?
can you make it yourself, and if so what is the ratio of agar to liquid?
Hi a,
The agar base recipe is actually linked. Here’s the link for ya: http://chocolatecoveredkatie.com/2008/12/17/out-of-one-many/
do you use coconut milk for the agar base? I used the almond milk and my cream looked like butterscotch pudding!! Also–which appliance do you whip it with? Yours looks so fluffy!
I use almond breeze for the agar base. I’ve never tried it with coconut milk. It’s always white for me. And to blend, I put it in the magic bullet.
I’m going to try it with your brand of almond milk–must be whiter in color! Thanks for all of your recipes! My daughter is going ga-ga over your oatmeal meals!
Aw you are so welcome!
Katie,
I have a question. I hope this wasn’t already asked. I’ve no doubt answering the same questions must be tiresome. I was at my local grocery store today and wanted to buy coconut extract for this whipped cream recipe. I’m not really familiar with coconut extract and saw that it was imitation. I didn’t know if there was only imitation or if there was in fact imitation and pure. I know there is a HUGE difference in taste between real vanilla extract and artificial and wondered if you knew if the same held true for the coconut as now I have found out that both do exist. I may be able to find it at my specialty store if need be.
Thanks,
Jillian
I use imitation. It says all-natural, but it doesn’t say “pure” so I think it’s immitation (The one I get is from target)
Kaite,
Please create a recipe for healthy oreo’s. I would adore you even more than I already do, which is saying something (:
Putting it on my list!
I’m thinking of using this inside the Hostess recipe but I’m worried it might be too runny, will it achieve that fluffy whipped texture of Ricemallow etc?
Thank you!
This one is more of a thinner cream… I’m not sure it’ll work. (I’m thinking it’s too runny.) But then again, I’ve never tried it, so if you do experiment with it I’d love to know how it turns out!
I tried to make this today, but it REALLY didn’t come out right; it was just like milk, no “whip” at all. Any idea what I did wrong?? I’d really like to be able to make it–it looks AMAZING!
It’s almost impossible for me to know what could’ve gone wrong, since I wasn’t there to see. Can you tell me more specifics about what ingredients you used and what you did?
I used 2 tbsp agar flakes with 2 cups unsweetened original Silk pure almond milk…I tried to “slow boil” it as best I could, and then I brought it down to low for 5 minutes. It got really really frothy at the beginning and so I reduced the heat and stirred it–was that a mistake? Do you think not letting it cool for long enough could’ve contributed too? (I put it in the fridge after only 5 minutes…I was impatient to eat it! haha)
Yes, don’t stir. Also, don’t let it get very frothy before lowering.
.
And try almond breeze. it seems to work better for this
Okay! Thanks so much for the tips
I can’t wait to try it again. Love your blog, by the way–everything else I’ve made has turned out DELICIOUSLY.
I really Love your site. Even though I am not a vegan and actually quite the opposite we both share a major love for chocolate but a desire to keep the sugar natural and LOW. Please check out my blog and feel free to “like” it and my Facebook page. I think you will love my coconut Kefir recipe and my brownies (u can sub the egg with flaxseed meal) I have shared several of your post. Thanks!
oh and I dont think these cookies look bad, i would still eat them lol my blog is http://www.paleodietlifestyles.com
I wonder what I did wrong with the vegan whipped cream. It looked NOTHING like yours in the photos, was not that creamy/fluffy and definitely NOT that white! Any suggestions?
PS – Your blog makes me otherwise very unproductive
I’m not sure
It’s impossible to know where someone’s recipe could’ve gone wrong when I wasn’t there to see what happened or what specific ingredients were used. Maybe the color is a milk difference?
CCK, thanks for answering our questions
I am going to try the vegan cream again.
I really enjoy your website and recipes. I usually have no problems having something come out well but I have tried this one repeatedly with very little success. The cream is soft and does not get firmed up.
I have not tried commercial almond milk, but use homemade. I used powdered agar and it is usually 1 tsp = 1 Tbsp agar flakes. Still no luck.
How long do you let the mixture cool before blending? Mine looks like the photo of the gelled agar base but after blending gets really soft.
Suggestions?
Sorry, I don’t know. I’ve never used powder or homemade milk
.
I let it cool until it’s firm like jello. Smetimes overnight, sometimes less.
Do you whip it with beaters, a fork, or in the food processor or blender? Can’t wait to try this!
I actually use a Magic Bullet, but I guess a food processor would work if you make a big enough batch
.
looks good, what do you do with the other half though? because you say (put half of it in the blender) but never mention the other half…?
It makes two servings, so you can use the other half to make another recipe or another serving of the same recipe
.
can i ask, what in that list of ingredients actually gives it the white colour and a nice flavour?
it looks like something is missing…
i have used agar agar loads and it sets into a clear yellowish jelly like block…adding sugar to it would make it sweet, but not nice tasting enough to drizzle over a dessert!
theres also no fat in that at all…
i just don’t get how it is supposed to turn into a creamy tasty topping??
also, when you blend up agar once it has set, it resets once you refridgerate it ,so you would have to blend again beofre use?
