TheLaughingMan Posted October 13, 2022 Share Posted October 13, 2022 Hi, does anyone know where you can buy cream for coffee like you do in the west (a cold carton in the fridge) thankyou Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThailandRyan Posted October 13, 2022 Share Posted October 13, 2022 Villa sells a Half cream, like a half/half. Makro as well. As far as the coffee creamers like back home they do not exist here in Thailand. I make my own by adding liquid Vanilla and some other liquid flavorings like hazelnut and caramel to the Heavy Cream I use. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Barefoot Posted October 13, 2022 Share Posted October 13, 2022 I buy the Magnolia Half Cream product at Friendship Market. You can order it online from TOPS or Shopee, and probably elsewhere as well. Magnolia Half Cream Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luuk Chaai Posted October 14, 2022 Share Posted October 14, 2022 you requested cream... not Half /Half, not flavored pancake batters... this one from Magnolia is sold @ Makro, Lotus, Villa Market and Tops Unless your coffee is over the top acidic, it does not curdle. It steams very well for Cappuccino and the like. Bonus it's keto friendly 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But the carton doesn't have any nutrition facts on it, and being a namby pamby woke keto dieter, I'm interested in carb content. The whipping cream is keto friendly, as someone else points out. Is this what you mean by "heavy cream"? I found it didn't keep well after opening even in the fridge. Both are great for protein shakes with coconut and almond milk. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post The Theory Posted October 14, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted October 14, 2022 I use unsweetened almond milk as half/half. Much more healthier. ???? 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

retiree Posted October 14, 2022 Share Posted October 14, 2022 Question: for the tiny amount you add to coffee, does UHT whipping cream taste any different from regular whipping cream? And does it really not spoil much, much longer in the fridge? -- Retiree 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also when buying, you really do need to read the label. As 1 barista cream I looked at, had less fat content that Dutch Mill whole milk. I just use milk, and it froths up rather nice, and I can get soft peaks, sort of, if I don't stop. Sure I'm sacrificing a bit of flavor by not using heavier creams, but like the flavor of the coffee to come thru also. I prefer black or a frothy flat white.

"goes well" I would translate as "just acceptable", but what can you do. It is a question of shelf life, not taste. Of course original whipping cream (or half/half - I did not try that) is much better taste-wise, but the pack lasts only about 3 days in the fridge once opened. The last resort would be to buy the smallest packs available, but this does not change the shelf life and this solution is still expensive. No idea why they do not sell the "standard" coffee milk one is used to in Europe and which lasts ages. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

retiree Posted October 22, 2022 Share Posted October 22, 2022 Correct me if I'm wrong, but Teapot Extra brand seems to be one of those "creamers" that consists mostly of sugar and palm oil, with a little bit of milk powder. https://bulky.my/products/teapot-sweetened-creamer-500g Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tasted ok i guess. The best is full fat real cream, but it is expensive and has a short shelf life. Coffee Cream (not creamer !) lasts very long even outside the fridge. It's a standard in every supermarket in Switzerland. You can order in every coffee shop a "Café creme". This is the standard coffee cup apart from Capuccino, Caffe Latte (Milchkaffee) - which I hate by the way and the other varieties.

If it's dairy based, surely it's not going to last long outside the fridge? What is it exactly? You can buy full cream powdered milk here in Foodland for instance, and online. That will last outside the fridge, but still best stored in it. It's ok in coffee and tea. I think some of the products mentioned here fall into the category of non-dairy creamers, for me to be avoided at all costs. *Woke alert!* Palm oil and sugar, massive deforestation worldwide, bad teeth, diabetes, etc, etc with the destruction of habitat and native land. But I suppose you could say the same about dairy production. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And has nothing to do with Palm Oil etc. This concludes my contribution to this topic. Up to you to believe me or drink your coffee black.

retiree Posted October 25, 2022 Share Posted October 25, 2022 And the winner is ... Magnolia half cream (115B/quart from Tops). Tastes just like old-fashioned Half & Half squeezed from red-blooded American cows -- smooths the coffee but doesn't add its own peculiar flavor. Definitely (ordinary) pasteurized, but not clear if it's been homogenized. And there's no ingredient analysis on the carton or website; just says Low fat fresh cream made from fresh milk. Carton is marked Best by ... one month from purchase date, and says consume within 48 hours after opening, which seems short. I assume it will last a week or two in the fridge. Science beckons! -- Retiree 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
