Notes
- Use chilled heavy cream for best whipping results.
- You can adjust the sweetness by adding more or less powdered sugar according to your taste.
- Fresh fruit should be prepared just before serving to prevent browning and maintain freshness.
- For a dairy-free alternative, use coconut cream and adjust whipping time accordingly.
- The board is best served immediately but whipped cream can be refrigerated for up to 24 hours.
