Answer 2

Fundamentally, only cows make cream. Thus, you make light cream and heavy cream by feeding a cow, milking it, and skimming the the cream off the milk. You can then refine the skimmed cream to get heavy and light cream. To approximate light cream you can mix whole milk and a bit of heavy cream. It will have the same consistency and fat content if you get the correct proportions, but not the same taste. Heavy cream will lend the mixture a more butter-like taste.
