Where do you find Parve whipping cream? I can find parve cream that I use to make icecream and bake with but it will not whip.
You can find pareve whipping cream at most Jewish markets. On the east coast it is made by Rich’s and is called Richwhip, non-dairy whipped topping. Another company mimicream makes one that is available in whole foods markets and it is made from the extracts from nuts instead of hydrogenated oils. We hope to try it soon and let you know how it works.
