    		Reddi-wip was invented in 1948 by Aaron S. "Bunny" Lapin (January 5, 1914 in St. Louis, Missouri â€" July 10, 1999). He attended the University of Missouri and then went on to Washington University School of Law in St. Louis.

    Starting out during the food rationing era of World War II, he invented Sta-Whip as a cream substitute using vegetable oil. After the war, he invented Reddi-wip in 1948, using real cream, along with a new valve more suitable for whipped cream, with fluting to create a pleasant pattern and a tilt-to-open design that pops back to the center to preserve the propellant gases. He applied in 1949 and received a patent for â€oedispensing valves for gas pressure containersâ€? in 1955.
