Vegan Heavy Cream

Vegan Heavy Cream is a thick, creamy extract from the white flesh of mature coconuts, commonly used in Southeast Asian, South Indian and Caribbean cooking for curries, desserts and drinks. It is prized for a rich mouthfeel and high fat content that lends body and flavor to both sweet and savory dishes. Nutritionally, Vegan Heavy Cream is energy-dense and particularly high in saturated fat, containing about 30g of saturated fat per 100g, so it’s best used sparingly if you are watching saturated-fat intake. It does provide small amounts of plant minerals such as manganese and copper and some fiber compared with dairy creams. From a health perspective, Vegan Heavy Cream acts mainly as a concentrated source of fat rather than protein or micronutrients; consider using lighter coconut-milk options or protein-containing alternatives in recipes when you want the coconut flavor with less saturated fat and more nutrition.
