Answer 3

half and half is AKA 10% Cream. depending on where you live, this percentage can go up.

In the United States, cream is usually sold as:

Half and half (10.5–18% fat)

Light, coffee, or table cream (18–30% fat)

Medium cream (25% fat)

Whipping or light whipping cream (30–36% fat)

Heavy whipping cream (36% or more)

Extra-heavy or manufacturer's cream (38–40% or more), generally not available at retail.

In the United Kingdom, cream is usually sold as:

Half cream (12%)

Single cream or light cream (18%)

Whipping cream (35%)

Double cream (48%)

Cream with 30% or more of fat can be turned into whipped cream by mixing it with air. This roughly doubles the cream's volume as air bubbles are captured in a network of fat droplets. If the whipping is continued, the fat droplets stick together and form butter; the remaining liquid is buttermilk.

Whipped cream is generally sold in bottles in the grocery store

Whipped cream is sold ready-to-use in pressurized containers, and is colloquially called squirty cream[citation needed]. Nitrous oxide is used as a propellant, and when the cream leaves the nozzle, it produces four times the volume of whipped cream, i.e., twice the volume produced by whipping air into it. Using this technique, it may also be prepared in reusable dispensers, similar to a seltzer siphon bottle, using inexpensive disposable nitrous oxide cartridges.

Chantilly cream (French: crème Chantilly) is whipped cream with sugar and vanilla.
