heavy cream
Heavy cream, also called heavy whipping cream, is whipping cream with a milk fat content of between 36 and 40 percent. Whipping cream will double in volume when whipped. Heavy cream is not the same as the British double cream. Double cream has 48% butterfat, 8% higher than the highest-fat cream available in the United States.
Ingredient
Season: available year-round
How to store: All cream, unless ultrapasteurized (briefly heated to 149°C/300°F and then cooled), is highly perishable and should be kept in the coldest part of the refrigerator.
How to prepare: Unpasteurized, unhomogenized cream whips much easier than pasteurized or pasteurized & homogenized cream. The colder cream is to start, and the colder it stays as you whip it, the easier and better it whips. If it is not cold enough, it doesn’t "whip," it "churns" (no air is incorporated) which makes butter. When whipping cream, add the sugar when the cream is mostly whipped, and the cream will whip to a higher volume. Adding the sugar at the beginning results is lower volume.

some places will sell heavy table cream and heavy whipping cream. My understanding is that whipping cream is identical with the exception of a stabilizer added to keep the cream from separating once whipped. The stabilizer used most often is carrageenan, a natural extract.

No. Heavy cream has the consistency of sour cream, it is thicker than what is used to whip. Whipping cream CAN be used as a substitute in sauces etc. (pretty much anything that is stovetop), but a better substitute for baking is fresh sour cream.

Kinda. Heavy whiping cream is easier and faster to whip.. sold for that reason, while heavy cream is usually used as a base for certain desserts and rich meals, such as cream cheese spice cake or homeade mac and cheese.

if you take the heavy cream, and beat the hell outta it, you get your whipping cream.
