Question: Does whipped cream have sugar?
Answer: Generally, store-bought whipped cream does have sugar, but it is minimal. Below we have provided the sugar content for some popular whipped cream products. Cool Whip isn’t real whipped cream but we put it on the list anyway due to its popularity.
You will find that the sugar in the below products is two grams or less per two tablespoons serving. While two grams of sugar is not a lot, the serving size is small. In many cases, people probably consume at least double the serving size on something like a dessert. This should be a factor when determining the amount of sugar you are consuming.
Check out our recipe for homemade whipped cream. By making your own whipped cream, you can control the added sugar content.
