Heavy cream sale: what to check for cooking and whipping

• Heavy cream has at least 36 percent milk fat and whips well, while half-and-half has much less and will not whip.
• Ultra-pasteurized cream lasts longer unopened, so note the date and use it within about a week once opened.
• Some heavy cream contains thickeners like gums, so read the ingredient list if you want only cream.
• Cream freezes acceptably for cooking but may separate, so freeze only what you will add to soups and sauces.

Which suits you: Bakers and dessert makers get the most from heavy cream for whipping, while coffee drinkers and light cooks often prefer half-and-half or lighter cream.
