Heavy cream is the butterfat layer of milk that is skimmed before the milk is homogenized. Usually it has a fat percentage of 36 percent or more. Follow the directions below to make your own heavy cream at home. Handy, because it is not available in the store in the Netherlands.

Part 1 of 3: Gather all the supplies

1. Put it in the refrigerator for 1 to 2 days, in a sealed container. The heavy cream is best used after it has been in the fridge for 24 hours.
   • You can also use the heavy cream directly in pastries, soup or savory sauces.
   • Use full cream (whipped cream) for those recipes where you need to know exactly what the fat percentage is, such as pastries and other delicate baked goods.
