Cream, a dairy product rich in fat, plays a significant role in various food preparations. Defined by FSSAI, cream is classified based on fat content and end-use into market or manufacturing cream. Its composition includes water, fat, protein, lactose, ash, total solids, and solids-not-fat. Cream types include light, coffee, whipped, heavy, and plastic cream.

DEFINATION OF CREAM According to FSSAI (2011) Cream Cream means rich rich in in fat in in the the form milk, milk, obtained obtained by buffalo buffalo milk defined defined under thereof thereof. . be be free free from foreign foreign to to milk means the fat, , form of of an the fluid fluid product product comparatively comparatively an emulsion emulsion of of fat fat- -in in- -skimmed skimmed by physical physical separation milk or or milk milk of of any under this this regulation separation from any other regulation or or a a mixture from cow other species species as cow milk, milk, as mixture from starch milk starch and and other other ingredients ingredients
CLASSIFICATION OF CREAM Cream Cream may 1) 1) Market Market cream may be be broadly broadly classified cream : : used classified as used for for direct as: : direct consumption consumption 2) 2) Manufacturing Manufacturing cream products products cream : : used used for for manufacture manufacture of of dairy dairy According to FSSAI (2011) 1 1. .

Based Based on on the the end end use, use, cream cream is is classified classified as as TYPE TYPE OF CREAM OF CREAM TABLE CREAM LIGHT CREM COFFEE CREAM WHIPPED CREAM HEAVY CREAM PLASTIC CREAM FAT PER CENT IN CREAM FAT PER CENT IN CREAM 20-25% 20-25% 20-25% 30-40% 30-40% 65-85%

COMPOSITION OF CREAM SNF of cream can be calculated by taking the ratio of water to SNF of milk. If ratio of water to SNF of milk is 10:1, then the approximate SNF in cream = (100 - F/11) where F is fat content of cream SNF in cream can be estimated as : %SNF in cream= (100-%fat in cream)* %SNF in milk (100-%fat in milk)
