National Whipped Cream Day
January 5, 2024
This holiday falls on Reddi-Wip founder Aaron “Bunny” Lapin’s birthday (January 5, 1914 – July 10, 1999). Lapin invented Reddi-Wip in 1948, and the holiday celebrates whipped cream’s contributions to the dessert world.
The earliest known literary references to whipped cream seem to date back to 1629 in France (crème fouettée) and 1673 in England. National Whipped Cream Day is actually a nod to pay homage to the birthday of Reddi-wip founder Aaron Lapin, who was born in 1914.
