The whipping cream I buy is called Heavy Whipping Cream. Some people call it heavy cream and some call it whipping cream.
Then there's Half and Half wich is a mixture of heavy cream and whole milk.
According to the computer program called Diet Power, which I use, here are some stats for them:
Heavy Cream, 1 cup = 821 calories, 88.1 fat grams, 6.64 carbs
Half and Half, 1 cup = 314 calories, 27.7 fat grams, 10.4 carbs
Regular Whole Milk, 1 cup = 150 calories, 8.15 fat grams, 11.4 carbs
So you can see why people choose the heavy whipping cream or Half and Half over whole milk.
