Hoosier Hill Farm Heavy Cream Powder Bottle 16oz (Import)

A “must have” for those keto dishes. But also find I don’t keep cream in the refrigerator long enough so I love having this on hand at the coffee bar when the rare guest says they want cream in their coffee.

I purchased this product first and foremost for my coffee as a shelf stable alternative to refrigerated heavy cream and also for cooking and baking. As a former school trained chef I am particular in my tastes but in all honesty I was not expecting this to taste like fresh heavy cream. After reading the review about lumps, I took the advice of others and mixed about a teaspoon of hot coffee in the cup before adding the rest. It took a while to dissolve all the lumps with stirring...a slight annoyance but not enough to discontinue using the product. Even with all the stirring, a few small lumps were floating on the top when I added the rest of the coffee. A teaspoon of the powder gave me the right color for my coffee. The mouth feel was spot on for heavy cream and I spent the rest of the time finishing my cup trying to decide if I could tell the difference from the two. As others had commented, I did notice a grittiness at the very end of the cup, the last tablespoon or so. I decided to make my next cup with fresh heavy cream to see the difference. I added about a tablespoon of fresh heavy cream to my cup. Same color, same appearance. Mouth feel was the same but there was a definite difference in the taste, not sweeter but the dairy flavor I picked up with the fresh cream was most likely due to the milk sugars. That being said all in all I think this is a good product for those looking for a shelf stable alternative to heavy cream for their coffee. The flavor was close enough that I needed to make a cup with fresh cream to taste the difference. One star removed for the grittiness at the end and the lumps that take a lot of stirring to remove. I will purchase this product again.

This did not dissolve and it sat right on top of the hot coffee and never intermingled with the coffee at all I had to pour it out I don't know what I'll use it for I'll probably give it away I have ordered this in the past and it didn't act like this it was dissolvable but I won't ever order this again I should have ordered a smaller amount and I didn't like the taste of it it tasted like bad canned milk so if I'm going to drink canned milk I'll order canned milk which is what I did today only because I can't get to the market and I don't want to just order cream from the grocery store

Heavy cream in powder form is a practical way to enjoy single serve recipes. I have ordered from Hoosier Hill Farm before, recommended. Thank you!

This is a great addition to my kitchen. I always have fresh cream, and I never have to worry about it going bad. It's easy to make, buy a frother for $5 to make mixing easy. That's the only thing, you can't just stir it up, you need some type of mixer to get rid of the lumps. But nbd. Put it in the fridge for about 30 minutes after you mix it and it will thicken a bit. I use this for coffee, and all manner of recipes. I haven't tried it for making ice cream, but that is on the list. I think it'll work fine. This is a staple in my home.
