If you are a mid or end-nineties kid, you must know about Whip and Chill. It used to come in a powdered mix form in a tiny box and was pretty popular among kids and adults alike. People used to mix it in water to make a mousey dessert, and occasions would seem incomplete without it.
As time passed, it vanished from grocery stores and the market in general. There was also a time when the only place from where people could purchase Whip n’ Chill was the Vermont Country Store. But not long after its disappearance from the market, they also stopped selling it.
But this doesn’t mean that the nineties kid can no longer enjoy this homemade dessert. Thanks to the Amazon marketplace, you can still revive the nostalgia and get hands-on Whip n’ Chill. However, one thing you need to be mindful of here is that Amazon only sells Whip n’ Chill in bulk, and that too at a hefty price.
