Notes

Use cold heavy cream for the fluffiest texture, and avoid overwhipping to keep it light and smooth.
Avoid overwhipping, as the cream can become grainy and eventually turn into butter.
Adjust the honey quantity to suit your preferred sweetness level.
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours.
This whipped cream is ideal as a topping for desserts, beverages, and fresh fruit.
