Bought some cream tonight as friends coming for lunch tomorrow but now they can't make it.
Was just wondering if I can freeze it.
Thanks.

I freeze cream all the time in small amounts and use it for pasta sauce etc. Some people freeze milk and its ok, makes great milkshakes.

yeah i buy bulk full cream milk and dairy from a mates farm and freeze it, I'm also really particular about dairy and can taste slights in quality quickly - freezing it makes no difference to the taste, just thaw it at room temp.

Now if you mix it with some beaten egg whites, caster sugar and vanilla it freezes really well and then you can scoop some out and put it on yummy warm fruit pie. lol

wish i read this yesterday. had a 600ml of cream in freezer, let it thaw out and it was quite thickish. wasnt sure, if it was ok, so tipped it out. guess it would have been ok. should have kept it and made scones this morning. oh well, thank goodness for this thread, i learn something new each day.

It freezes really well when it is whipped. Then it just thins down when you add it to warm dishes that you are cooking.

Mum and Dad would bring the lovely NZ cream to Aus when they came for holidays. Mum froze it and wrapped it well and it was totally fine when it got there. Just whipped it up and whallah! Taste of home. Not that plastic stuff they call cream. Also use frozen cream for the Butter Chicken etc. Perfectly fine to use frozen cream.

Yes it freezes fine - but check how long for because it still goes 'off' if left to long.
