What it is

This ingredient refers to cream that has been heat-treated through pasteurization to kill harmful bacteria, with salt added. Cream is the high-fat part of milk, separated from whole milk. The combination of pasteurized cream and salt is a fundamental component of many dairy products.

Why it's used

Manufacturers add pasteurized cream and salt to provide richness, moisture, and flavor to food products. Salt also helps enhance the overall taste and can act as a mild preservative. This combination is commonly found in baked goods like cakes, cupcakes, and cookies, as well as in frozen desserts.

Health notes

Pasteurized cream is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA. Salt (sodium chloride) is also GRAS. Cream is a source of fat, including saturated fat; the Dietary Guidelines for Americans 2025-2030 recommend limiting saturated fat to less than 10% of daily calories. Salt is an essential nutrient, but high intake can be a concern; the FDA's Daily Value for sodium is 2,300 mg. JECFA has evaluated sodium chloride and determined that an acceptable daily intake (ADI) is not specified, indicating no numerical limit is deemed necessary. EFSA has also evaluated sodium chloride.

Allergen info

This ingredient contains milk, which is one of the nine major food allergens identified by the FDA.
