We’ve been drinking heavy cream/double cream/whipping cream in our coffee for years but started trying out some plant based alternatives to a lot of our foods a few years ago. The only one we kept going with was this cream. Exact same cost as the dairy version, and tasted exactly the same.
I wish I could speak towards other brands, this was the only one we tried and stuck with it. I think it might be UK only though…
People who strongly oppose plant based meat alternatives use the same argument. As if that’s the only food people ever eat in a single meal, single day, or even a single week.
I used to work in the catering industry and have seen almost every chef use it interchangeably with cream when they needed plant based options. It works great
It’s amazing. When I can’t find the Silk stuff, I get extra creamy oat milk. But a specific store brand. It’s the only other plant milk that has the same texture and creaminess.
Elmlea plant based double cream

Its not the same… nutritionally.
Lots of good micronutrients in cream
Nobody’s eating cream for the micronutrients

Speak for yourself. I entirely subsist off of double plant based cream and nothing else.
Or as if they solely eat meat for the nutrients 🙄.
Does it cook the same as regular cream?

We used it for things like cheese sauce. Never tried actually whipping it, but for savory meals it did the trick just right
For anyone in Canada I use Silk Half and Half same kinda idea and tastes like 10% cream to me
The US also has this. It’s delicious.
When I’m at home I can only drink coffee with the Silk, tastes so much better than cream
