air with a publicist, doubling its volume by selling you mostly nothing.
means Heavy cream beaten until it traps enough air to turn thick, fluffy, and soft-peaked, usually sweetened and spooned onto desserts.
from A plain English compound: "whip" (to beat or lash rapidly) plus "cream." "Whip" goes back to Middle English and has Germanic cousins suggesting a quick, snapping motion — the same root behind whipping a horse or a flag whipping in the wind. The cream, of course, is the rich fatty layer that rises to the top of milk, from Old French "cresme" (a blend of Latin and possibly Gaulish roots). Put together, the name simply describes the action: cream that's been lashed into a froth. Older cooks called the fluffy result "snow cream" or "milk snow," a nod to its pale, drifted look before the literal "whipped" won out.
