Cream Chargers

We've finally been granted the permission from feedwhip to reproduce the cream chargers recipe to make blue strawberries!!! And to your surprise, it actually is not about whipped cream - but rather just the cream charges, whipper and nitrous oxide ...


The idea is to use the gas from the charger and the whipper to force the pressure into the berry. The colour comes form the otherwise disgusting liqueur - Blue curacao - see here for plenty more recipes for this poison...

The way to turn your strawberries blue - and simultaneously give them an alcohol infused flavour is to insert them through the neck of the whipped cream dispenser and then pour in enough Blue liquor to cover them. Then follow the same procedure that you would for charging cream with nitrous oxide to froth it up.

What happens is that the increase in pressure from the cream charger will force the blue into the strawberries - but because their is no fat in the fruit (unlike in cream) they don't actually whip when the pressure is released - the nitrous oxide gas simply escapes - which leaves noting behind (due it's inert, tasteless nature) except for the Blue Curacao which has been forced into the cell structure of the previously red fruit - and what you're left with is the perfect cream charger powered Blue Fruit Cocktail .... obviously some blue whipped cream would go perfectly with it - but that is a recipe for another day!!!
