Her family took to Instagram to post words of caution to her 179k fans:

The French text translates to: “Here is an example of a chantilly siphon that exploded and struck Rebecca’s thorax, resulting in her death. Do not use this kind of utensil in your home! Several tens of thousands of defective devices are still in circulation.”
