Angel Food Cake with Three Berry Syrup and Homemade Whip Cream




My husband favorite is Angel Food Cake. I make it on a regular basis. This time I picked up blackberries and blueberries from the farmers market so I decided to make a syrup from the berries and of course make the homemade whip cream. (I never buy whip cream any more. As long as you keep Heavy Whipping in the fridge....You can make whip cream whenever you want)

This turned out really good. Can I just say, After I was done using the whip cream and syrup I folded it together. It tasted like a berry mouse!!!! It was so yummy!!! I could of ate it by itself!!!!
