Country Crock Launches Plant-Based Whipped Cream!
If you're looking for a great alternative to dairy-based heavy whipping cream, Country Crock now has just what you need. And interestingly, it's made out of lentil milk!
Country Crock Plant Cream is the ultimate plant-based 1:1 swap for dairy cream. You can use it to add richness and texture to a delicious dessert, flaky biscuits, soups, or coffee beverages. Or, whip it into a luscious and fluffy icing topping for cupcakes! And best of all, it contains 29% less fat than its dairy-based counterpart. Whether you're vegan, dairy-intolerant, or simply trying to reduce your carbon footprint, this is a healthier plant-based alternative anyone can enjoy!
Country Crock's Dairy-Free and Vegan Products
This is not Country Crock's first venture into plant-based foods. They've also launched an entire Plant Butter collection complete with various formats and varieties.
Among these innovative products are three types of vegan butter including one made with Almond Oil, another with Avocado Oil, and one Olive Oil-based butter. These plant-based options are all available in both stick and tub formats.
In fact, many of the brand's margarine products were always vegan-friendly, and were simply not marketed as such. However, this was their first-ever line of dedicated dairy-free alternatives. This shift toward the plant-based food sector is aligned with the company's efforts to reduce their carbon footprint and provide viable solutions for eco-conscious consumers.
“Our mission is to make people happier and healthier with great tasting plant-based products that are better for the planet.”
How To Use Country Crock's Dairy-Free Whipped Cream
Wondering how you can use this plant-based heavy whipping cream alternative in your vegan baking and cooking? Reviewers are already raving about the delicious taste it adds as a coffee creamer, in biscuits, icing, and baked into their favorite desserts!
Thankfully, this product is a 1:1 swap with dairy cream, meaning you don't need to calculate any conversions or complicate your recipe. Simply follow any dairy-based recipe using Country Crock Plant Cream as an alternative. We suggest putting it to the test in flaky pastries, vegan ice cream, mousse, creamy sauces, soups, and anything your imagination can conjure up!
However, if you're preparing whipped cream, Country Crock has shared the best recipe directly on their site! Simply combine two cups of very cold Plant Cream (refrigerated for at least four hours), two tablespoons of powdered sugar, and two tablespoons of vanilla extract in a mixing bowl. Then, use a stand mixer to whip the mixture on high until it thickens fully and forms stiff peaks.
