Whipping cream is dairy cream with a fat content of around 30 to 35%, lighter than heavy cream but still rich enough to whip into soft peaks. One metric cup (250 ml) weighs around 238 grams or 8.4 ounces. It tops desserts, lightens pasta sauces, and folds into mousses and ice creams.

Cream cartons are sold by volume in millilitres or fluid ounces, while baking recipes often switch to grams, cups, or tablespoons. Converting between the four stops you opening a second carton when only a little is left from the first.

Heavy cream is the richer cousin of whipping cream, with around 36% fat or more compared to 30 to 35%. They are close in weight (240 g vs 238 g per cup), so swap 1:1; heavy cream gives a stiffer whip that holds longer for piped decorations. See heavy cream in ounces.

Crème fraîche is cultured cream with a tangy bite that whipping cream lacks. They are close in weight (230 g vs 238 g per cup), so swap 1:1 in sauces and toppings; whipping cream is the one to reach for when a recipe asks for whipped cream. See crème fraîche in ounces.
