Double cream is a high butter-fat content cream, typically 30-40% more than heavy cream. Heavy cream is more than 35% butter-fat, while double cream is 45-55% butter-fat. Light cream, otherwise, contains 18-30% butter-fat, much like half and half. Unseparated [un-skimmed] cow's milk is typically 3-4% butter-fat. Double Heavy Cream is just another name for double cream. Double cream is best for whipping into a thick foam. It is not generally marketed in the US, but in the UK and Europe.
