NESTLÉ All Purpose Cream is a versatile ingredient; it can be used in anything from desserts to pasta or even in savory dishes. Though aside from adding creaminess to specialties or everyday cooking, all-purpose cream can also be a time-saver, a cost-cutter, or even become your “special” ingredient when it comes to preparing good food.

Here are 5 creative ways to use NESTLÉ All Purpose Cream:

1. Make your own homemade ice cream

In the absence of an ice cream maker at the sudden onset of craving for cold dessert, it is possible to make ice cream at your own home in just 15 minutes! Simply mix the NESTLÉ All Purpose Cream with sugar, flavorings, and toppings, then shaking the mix in a plastic bag with salt and ice cubes. No need to brave the traffic to get to the nearest store!

If there is no heavy cream or whipping cream available, whip NESTLÉ All Purpose Cream into soft peaks for spooning over desserts; do this at high speed for stiffer peaks. The key is to chill the cream thoroughly before whipping. It is also best to chill the bowl and all utensils.

Some cooks like to add at least two spoonfuls of powdered sugar to each box of cream to help the cream hold its shape longer, and vanilla extract for flavor.

Flat butter frosting can be saved and be given a smoother, creamier taste—simply with the addition of addition of chilled NESTLÉ All Purpose Cream, turning it into buttercream frosting.
