Notes
If you want to make your own whipped cream, simply get out the mixer, a cold bowl pour in 1 cup of whipping cream and start mixing until soft peaks start to form, to sweeten it, slowly add in 2 oz of sugar and continue to mix until stiff peaks form. Do not over mix or you will end up with sweet butter. Makes enough cream for 4 individual parfaits.You can make this with any fruit you like, try using what's in season for the best flavor. For autumn or winter, you could even try canned pears sprinkled with nuts and drizzled with cream.
