What it is
Organic whipping cream is a dairy product made from the high-fat layer that is skimmed from the top of milk. It is pasteurized and sometimes homogenized. Being 'organic' means it comes from cows raised according to organic farming standards, which include specific feed, housing, and health management practices.
Why it's used
Manufacturers add whipping cream to products to provide a rich, creamy texture and flavor. It is often used in desserts, sauces, and baked goods for its ability to be whipped into a foam, adding lightness and volume, or to contribute to a smooth mouthfeel.
Health notes
Whipping cream is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA as a conventional food ingredient. It is a source of fat, including saturated fat. The Dietary Guidelines for Americans 2025-2030 recommend limiting saturated fat intake to less than 10% of daily calories.
