1 pint - 100% A2/A2 Heritage Heavy Cream

Cream should last about 10 days after you receive it. Each container comes with a best by date to help guide you. But, of course, once it's opened there are so many variables that can affect shelf life (time out of the fridge, contaminants getting in, etc).

Make sure to keep your cream in the back of the fridge on the bottom shelf. That's where the temperatures stay cool and consistent, creating the ideal environment to maintain the freshness of your cream.

By keeping it at the back, away from any temperature fluctuations, you're ensuring that every drop remains as delicious as the first!

Can I freeze cream?
You can absolutely freeze cream, but some may notice a change in texture and consistency, and some don't. It may not whip as well, and it may be clumpy and need to be shaken to recombine. We recommend starting with a small amount to test before freezing lots of cream to see if you notice a taste difference.

You can freeze cream for up to 6 months. Store it on its side, and make sure there’s at least 2” of head space to account for any expansion.

Note: The longer it's frozen, the more noticeable the changes.

You can add it to your coffee for an extra serving of richness. You can also use it to make whipped cream as a topping for your desserts (or just to eat by the spoonful!), stir it into soups and sauces for a richer, creamier texture, or add it to your mashed potatoes to make it super creamy. For the bakers, use it to create luscious pastries, pies, and frostings. And let's not forget, it's the secret ingredient in a classic Alfredo sauce.

How thick is the heavy cream?
The heavy cream is pourable, not spoonable. It’s similar to the thickness of store bought heavy cream… but without all the junk.

ORIGIN uses low-heat VAT pasteurization for their milk. The milk is slowly heated to 145°F (the lowest temperature allowed), then held at that temperature for 30 minutes, and then immediately cooled down.

Once cooled, the milk is separated into cream and skim milk.

This method ensures that the cream is as nutrient-rich as possible and that the flavor is top-notch. Plus, they never homogenize the cream.

This cream is not from our farm. It's from a local farm that practices in the same ways that we do. The cream is pasteurized, which means that microorganisms, fatty acids, and minerals are altered.

The cream is packaged in HDPE plastic, which is the most environmentally stable of all plastics. It does not contain BPA, phthalates, heavy metals, harmful fumes, or allergens. But all plastic has the potential to leach chemicals.
