Chantilly cream

Chantilly cream

Chantilly cream or crème Chantilly is a sweetened whipped cream, sometimes vanilla-flavoured.

It is said to have been invented by François Vatel, "maître d'hôtel" at the Château de Chantilly in the 17th century.

It is used in pastry both for its taste and as a decoration. Ice cream is also frequently served with Chantilly.

Preparation

Basic Chantilly is made of whipped cream and sugar, sometimes with vanilla added.
