50. just be sure your cream is very cold, as well as the bowl and beaters.

Warm cream just won't whip well. I use a stainless steel mixing bowl and a hand mixer, and I put them in the freezer. I usually put the cream in the freezer for about 20 minutes before I whip it.

Egg whites, on the other hand, must be room temperature to whip properly.

Oh yes, my preference is real fresh whipped cream. If that is not available Redi Whip will do just fine/
