| Heavy Cream does not exist up here in Canada...in Supermarkets anyway. Whipping cream is the only alternative and really the only difference between the two is a slightly higher butterfat content in Heavy Cream. ~Far la bella figura!

| The stuff I buy is called heavy whipping cream. It says it has 0 carbs per 2 tbsp.

| Thanks for the replies! I've been very hesitant about buying the whipping cream and thus depriving myself of alot of yummo sounding recipes but now I can! |

| I checked the carbs on both regular and heavy cream at the store and they were both zero carbs, so either one is fine. WOW!!!! I never thought of diluting it for milk!!! Excellant idea!

| Just watch out which brand of whipping cream you buy because I know for certain Beatrice has dextrose added (just to piss me off I am sure) and has 1 carb per tbsp. Of course I can't find anywhere that sells a different brand. I am pretty sure Reids is okay but it has been a few years since I checked. I buy the Beatrice but limit myself to one "white" decaf per day. I wouldn't dream of baking with it because those carbs add up quickly!

| We only have Land O Lakes here at our local stores. I'd love to find an organic cream.

| We are dairy farmers so my husband HATES to see purchased dairy products in our fridge. How the heck do I make sure that the cream on top is heavy? LOL
