About Cream, fluid, heavy whipping
Heavy whipping cream is the richest of the everyday creams, with a high enough fat content to whip into stable peaks. It's what turns a sauce silky, a soup velvety and a dessert into something indulgent — and what becomes whipped cream on top of it all.
It is, essentially, concentrated milk fat — very high in fat and calories, with only small amounts of protein and calcium for its weight. Used by the spoonful to enrich and finish, it adds a great deal of richness; used by the cupful, it adds up fast.
A little heavy cream goes a long way toward making a dish feel luxurious; like other concentrated fats, it rewards a measured hand.
