This rich, creamy dairy-free, soy-free and vegan cashew whipped cream is a sample recipe from The Conscious Cook by Chef Tal Ronnen. It’s a key component in one of his popular dessert recipes, Vegan Black Pepper Shortcakes with Blackberry Basil Sauce.
This cashew whipped cream takes just a few minutes of hands on time, but planning ahead is key. The cashews must be soaked for several hours or overnight, and once blended, the cashew whipped cream will need 2 hours to chill out.

Dear Ms. Alisa,
If soy is no good for our health, I ask why all the creators of “healthy recipes” include so much soy and soy-by-products, such as tofu.
Isn’t there a way to avoid soy, tofu, and gluten, dairy, all together?
Sincerily,
Altamyr Almeida
Hi Altamyr, the recipe you’ve commented on is soy, dairy and gluten-free! As for soy being no good for health, I haven’t seen literature that blackballs soy altogether. Here is more information on that topic -> https://www.godairyfree.org/news/is-soy-healthy
If you need to or choose to go soy-free though, it is definitely feasible with recipes like this and thousands more on our site!
