Light Cream

Light Cream

Everyday

Light cream is a dairy product containing 18-30% milk fat, positioned between half-and-half and heavy cream in richness. It adds a smooth texture to coffee, soups, and sauces but cannot whip into stable peaks due to its lower fat content compared to heavy cream. This moderately rich option provides a balance of flavor enhancement and calorie control for those seeking reduced-fat alternatives in culinary applications.
