Researchers are Working on a Fat-Free Prototype of Whipped Creams
References: food.ku.dk & designtaxi
The researchers at the University of Copenhagen are working on a new fat-free whipped cream prototype for those to enjoy with their desserts. To do so, it uses bacteria as the base instead of the traditional milk fat to possibly create a more sustainable iteration of the goods.
The team works towards a more eco-friendly approach with the main challenge of baking the ingredients. It is difficult to achieve the right texture due to the smooth and light nature of whipped cream, whilst ensuring it is stiff enough to hold the shape of desserts as well. Researchers use lactic acid, which can be defined as a 'good bacteria' with the possibility of creating new products as a renewable source as well.
