Country Crock Homestyle™ Dairy Free Heavy Whipping Cream (Refrigerated)

This makes a fantastic vegan whipped cream! Even non-vegans loved it! Most processed vegan whipped creams are made with coconut oil or palm oil, both VERY high in saturated fat. This one has coconut oil, but it's not the first ingredient and it's mixed with canola oil, a much healthier oil. I followed the recipe for STABILIZED vegan whipped cream from Gretchen's Vegan Bakery's website. It holds up between the two layers of my Black Forest Cake. The tricky part is heating an agar mixture to a high temp, while the cold cream is running in the stand mixer. Agar was in a tiny dish which suddenly became too hot to hold as I was drizzling it into the cold cream. The agar is what makes the whipped cream stable. I'm going to buy a tiny beaker with a handle and a spout for next time.
