I know my mother, an Italian bakery owner's daughter, would only use heavy cream for whipping. She would make her big 3 tiered whipped cream cakes for special events. Everybody loved them. So, I also only use heavy cream ! 😊
For churning butter it is not recomendad the ultra pasteurized version. Would the stabilizers in the WC 36% version be unwanted for the churning of the butter?
Find just pasteurized cream as well. Better quality and taste than ultra pasteurized cream. And if you kind find 40 percent cream, even better. Whips so much faster.
Here in Canada you typically have "heavy whipping cream" and "heavy cream" at the grocery store. The difference is that HWC is what's always going to be reliably available. It has 35% fat and usually contains carrageenan, mono and diglycerides, and other additives to help it whip up better. Heavy cream by comparison is far less common to see at a conventional supermarket, can be over 35% fat, and has no additives whatsoever. It is also noticeably more expensive.
Thanks, ATK! Good to know 🙂👍
Here in Chicago they have both but @ Aldi's the discount store where i do a lot of my shopping they only carry reg whipping
Here in Oklahoma, it's nothing but the heavy stuff

Yup. That's why 40% fat heavy cream is the standard in most upscale bakeries.
How about heating your cream, adding 2 T. melted butter, blending it and chilling the enriched cream before whipping.
I buy it in a squirt can.

I never knew this.
Pellow? The word is pillow
Good info, thank you
My stores only stock the heavy stuff. Hooray chains and not having choices.
Thank you ❤
In western Canada I only see whipping cream, 33 to 36%
Review trader Joe’s shelf stable whipping cream! This stuff is amazing. No additives and it acts like a stablized whipping cream
Ooo what's that pie?!
Why in the fxxx do they call it whipping cream then?
The ultimate is double cream from the UK. As an Expat I miss it a lot.
I have never seen “whipping cream” in my grocery stores, and have always used heavy cream

Cream Team represent!
I like how you explain the differences and what application each is good for.
Great info !!! Thanks !! One question tho.. what piping tip number did he use to pipe those little dollops on the chocolate dessert , pleaseeee ???
Which is better to add to soups and sauces?
Whip it, Whip it good
Could adding fat into the lighter cream help? Maybe some neutral oil
I don’t think I’ve ever seen just “whipping cream”… only ever the “heavy” kind
