Cream substitute, single

Single cream substitute is a product used in place of single dairy cream. The figures here describe it in its single-cream form. It mainly provides fat, with smaller amounts of carbohydrate and protein. Per 100g, it contains 15g of fat, including 9.2g of saturated fat, alongside 4g of carbohydrate and 3.1g of protein.

Fat provides energy and helps the body absorb fat-soluble vitamins. The saturated fat content is worth noting for people monitoring their intake, as saturated fat can raise blood cholesterol. A cream substitute is not necessarily lower in saturated fat than dairy cream. Full nutrient figures are in the tables below.
