Cream can be separated from milk by either centrifuging or by allowing whole milk to stand. Both methods work on the principle that cream is lighter than milk.
Because cream is lighter than milk, it rises to the top when the milk is allowed to stand. The cream can then be removed by skimming the top layer off.

How do you get cream while churning the milk?
Cream is obtained by allowing the milk to stand undisturbed so that the cream naturally rises to the top. This can occur through gravity or by mechanical means such as centrifugal force. Once the cream has risen, it can be skimmed off the top of the milk to be used separately.
Why does the density of milk increase when cream is separated from it?
The density changes due to differences in the density between cream and milk. Cream is lighter than water and milk is heavier than water. The average density of whole milk could be close to 1.024g per liter. When the cream is removed, the density of the milk goes up to about 1.036g per liter, while the density of the cream is about 0.968g per liter.
Can you replace cream cheese with milk?

What kind of milk do you use to make whip cream?
Whipped cream is not made directly from milk, and it is not possible to make whipped cream with homogenized milk purchased at supermarkets. Milk will froth and foam, but it does not have enough fat to form whipped cream. One needs heavy cream to make whipped cream. Heavy cream is separated from non-homogenized milk. When fresh milk is left to stand, the cream will rise to the top, where it can be skimmed off. This cream is further concentrated into the "heavy cream" or "whipping cream" that can then be whipped into whipped cream.
Where does cream that you put in your food come from?
