Alcohol-infused whipped cream is a type of whipped cream that is mixed with an alcoholic drink.
Commercial versions sold in aerosol cans were a fad in the United States in 2010,[1] with products dating back to at least 2005.[2] The cream has been sold under brand names such as Liquor Whipped, which is 28 proof; CREAM, which is 30 proof; Whipped Lightning which is 35.5 proof and is made in various flavors;[2] [1] Get Whipped,[3] Whipsy, which is 27 proof[4] and made with wine;[5] and Canisters of Cream.[6]
Criticism
[edit ]The toppings have been criticized for their potential to be "aimed at young drinkers".[7] "If a product looks like something else, it's easy not to be aware that it might contain a lot of alcohol," a public health official observed.[8] In the United States the sale of alcohol-infused whipped cream is regulated as a "distilled spirits specialty product".[9]
