Dream whip is a powdered mix and still available here. I think I saw it in the area where the canned and powdered milk is. As Geri B says, Cool Whip would be a good substitute and no mixing. Just thaw it and use.

Whip 'n Chill is in Fresh Market around here, I'm pretty sure. Or something very similar that is not Dream Whip

I don't remember it but I'm of an age when I should. Anyway, I found this online: Whip ’n Chill: One of the most popular desserts of the sixties, Whip ’n Chill was a strange one, similar in texture and taste to mousse, but with a faint tang of chemical design. Its ingredient list reads like a toxic waste dump posting: propylene glycol monostearate, sodium casienate, acetylated monoglycerides, cellulose gum, hydroxylated lecithin, sodium silico aluminate and sodium stearoyl-2- lactylate. During the sixties, the artificiality of Whip ’n Chill had a novelty appeal. People still believed in the space age, and Dow Chemical Company’s motto was “Better Living Through Chemistry.” With the end of the space-age, Whip ’n Chill’s novelty was replaced with horror when people began to realize just what they had been eating.

It doesn't sound too appetizing to me, but I searched and found that the Vermont Country Store carries (or carried?) it. They show it in their catalog but said it's unavailable right now so maybe it's just out of stock?

I have never heard of Whip 'n' Chill. And live thru the 60's and 70' and before.

I googled substitute for Whip 'n' chill. This is what I found.
I think that you are looking for Whip & Chill. I understand that it is no longer made but I found this recipe on the internet. See if it sound like what you are looking for. Charlotte

HOMEMADE WHIP & CHILL

1 package vanilla pudding, cooked with 2 cups water. Cook till thick. Add 1 (3 ounce) package jello (strawberry) and mix till jello dissolves. Chill till cool. Fold in 1 medium carton Cool Whip.

Don't I wish!!! :D I think maybe it's because my Mom made everything from scratch. Everything!
Her kitchen is to her what my sewing room is to me.

Try reading the labels of a lot of today's food products ..... so what has changed? :)

Try reading the label of Cool Whip - main two ingredients are hydrogenated veg. oil (shortening) and high fructose corn syrup. No thanks. Sticking with real whipped cream.

Never heard of whip n chill or whip & chill. The homemade whip & chill sounds very good. I never liked cool whip, When I use something like it I buy Reddi Whip, made with real cream.

My mother used to make a similar product from jello and whipped cream. She let the jello just begin to set and then whipped in the cream and then let it set. I know she must have cut out some of the water in the jello. For the life of me I was never able to duplicate it for my children
