Step By Step Photo Instructions:
- Take heavy whipping cream in a bowl. Keep this bowl and whisk attachment in the freezer for 10-15 minutes to make it chilled. This will help in whipping the cream easily.
- Now add sugar and rose water in that. Start beating it till you get soft peaks. Do not overbeat otherwise cream will start to separate and will turn into butter. Now keep this into the fridge.
- Right before serving, chop the fruits. Add those into the chilled, whipped cream. Also add cashews and almonds.
- Mix well to combine. Remove it to individual serving bowl. Garnish with more fruits and serve. Did you try this fruit cream recipe? I’d love to hear about it! Leave a review in the comment section below.
