What is Cream?
Cream is a dairy product that is composed of the higher-butterfat layer skimmed from the top of milk before homogenization. There are many types of cream such as clotted cream, double cream, whipping cream, whipped cream and half cream. Cream is used as an ingredient in many foods, including ice cream, many sauces, soups, and some custard bases, and is also used for cakes. Irish cream is an alcoholic liqueur which blends cream with whiskey and coffee. Cream is also used in curries such as masala dishes. [1]

Animal Sources Cream produced by cows, particularly Jersey cattle grazing on natural pasture often contains some natural carotenoid pigments derived from the plants they eat; this gives the cream a slight yellow tone, hence the name of the yellowish-white color cream. Cream from cows fed indoors, on grain or grain-based pellets, is white. [1] |
