What is rich cream?

Rich cream is a thick, high-fat dairy product often used in cooking and baking. It typically contains around 36-40% milk fat, making it ideal for whipping, creating sauces, or adding creaminess to dishes. Commonly referred to as heavy cream or heavy whipping cream, it can also be used in desserts, soups, and other recipes that require a luxurious texture. Its richness enhances the flavor and mouthfeel of various culinary creations.
