Who doesn’t love a delicious whipped cream? It’s the perfect topping for everything from hot drinks and desserts to fruits and breakfast pastries. In fact, it’s even delicious all on its own!
Even better is a version of whipped “cream” that’s dairy-free, loaded with healthy coconut-based fats, and chock-full of beauty-promoting collagen protein. Featuring our Vital Proteins Collagen Creamer® in Coconut, this "whippy" treat is perfect for adding to pretty much everything.
In case you aren’t already familiar with collagen's benefits, here’s a quick rundown. Collagen is produced naturally by the body. As we age, our collagen production decreases. This important protein is the building block of all of our connective tissues, including our hair, skin, nails, joints and bones.** Vital Proteins’ collagen is sourced from bovine, making it a source of all the amino acids we need to support vibrant health and longevity.
It’s crazy to think you can get all of that from some delicious, Whole30-friendly, dairy-free whipped cream!
