Answer 2

Sour Cream Substitute

Answer 3

Are you referring to a substitute meaning some other ingredient all together or a substitute for sour cream itself like creme' fresh?
As a pastry chef, you have to be very careful with pastry recipes in that they use a balance formula percentage which unless you have the experience to do so, cannot be altered or the recipe will more than likely fail! Sour creme for creme' fresh would not have much of an effect. Moisture content is pretty close.

Plain Yogurt

If you want to eat truly healthy, lose body fat consistently, normalize your blood pressure, cholesterol levels, prevent cancer, and even boost your brain health and energy levels, you may have heard all over the news that the Paleo Diet has been found to be one of the best methods of achieving all of these benefits compared to any other popular "fad" diets out there.

The truth is that the Paleo Diet will never be considered a fad because it's just simply the way that humans evolved to eat over approximately 2 million years. And eating in a similar fashion to our ancestors has been proven time and time again to offer amazing health benefits, including prevention of most diseases of civilization such as cancer, heart disease, alzheimers, and other chronic conditions that are mostly caused by poor diet and lifestyle. One of the biggest misunderstandings about the Paleo Diet is that it's a meat-eating diet, or a super low-carb diet. This is not true
