The trick I found firming up whip cream with out anything added is takeing a smallish metal mixing bowl put it into the freezer for like 10-15 minutes.
Then take it out and put a cup of heavy cream in the bowl and spin on level 3 (out of 5) with the hand mixer in the same spot.
I have done it without freezing the bowl with varying results.

For me the bit of vanilla I add gives that little flavor boost. But I admit to having no sweet tooth to speak of. 
I have also found that having a cold bowl and cold beaters really makes the process easier.
I can imagine that for a dessert that needs to wait a bit before serving, it would be handy having the extra stability gained from adding the pudding mix |
