Notes

For a lighter version, use milk or almond milk instead of heavy cream.
Adjust syrup sweetness to taste; start with 1–2 tbsp and add more if desired.
For a beautiful layered look, pour cream slowly over the back of a spoon.
Try mixing flavors — e.g., raspberry syrup with vanilla cream for a fruity twist.
