Transfer the cream to a large mixing bowl. Add the granulated sugar, emulsifier, powdered milk, and flavor powder if using.

Beat with an electric mixer on high speed for at least 10 minutes, until the mixture doubles in volume and holds stiff, airy peaks.

Use immediately to frost cakes, fill pastries, or garnish your favorite desserts.
💡 Chef's Tip
Keep your mixing bowl and beaters in the refrigerator for 10 minutes before starting — it makes a real difference in volume and firmness. Try vanilla, strawberry, or chocolate flavor powders to customize your frosting.
