Overview

  • More than three-quarters of the 22 whipped cream products evaluated earned a good overall rating from Stiftung Warentest.
  • Three cow’s milk creams—Schwarzwaldmilch Schlagsahne, Edeka Bio Schlagsahne and Aldi Milsani Schlagsahne—received top marks for taste.
  • Vegan alternatives expanded substantially when whipped but produced notably softer foam than dairy-based options.
  • No critical levels of contaminants were detected in either dairy or plant-based whipped creams.
  • Spray-can whipped creams proved convenient yet costly, delivered inferior taste and contain climate-harmful nitrous oxide.
