Is heavy whipping cream gluten free?
I make a chicken and spaghetti meal everyone loves using heavy cream. However, my wife who is gluten-intolerant swells up when eating it. Everything in the recipe except the heavy cream and the chicken are guaranteed gluten free. So either there's gluten being used as a thickener in the heavy cream or gluten is in a broth to plump up the chicken breasts. I wish I knew the answer to this one, myself.
Coconut Cream, the thick semi-solid matter that forms on the top of some cans of coconut milk can be whipped. To do so place the can in the refrigerator over nigh, remove the solid cream that is on top of the coconut water. Do not use the water. Whip with an electric mixer, sweeten to taste.
Is milk or heavy whipping cream better for ice cream?
Milk is better. Whipping cream makes it a bit weird.
Actually, a mixture of both is good. If you are altering the recipe, it would be best to keep the same percentage of milk fat. Otherwise, the ice cream might not get hard, and the machine might not stop. So if you use half and half in place of some of the heavy whipping cream, you should also replace some of the regular milk with the half and half too.

Are cream and whipping cream interchangeable?
In the UK, whipping cream is just a type of cream sold for whipping. (And actually, double cream works better for whipped cream toppings). Whipped cream is a type of fresh cream, in the sense that double cream, single cream, clotted cream etc... are all types of fresh cream. Whipped cream is not "the same as" fresh cream, it is a member of the "fresh cream" group. If a recipe just says "serve with fresh cream", it's best just to pick a type of cream that suits your needs (i.e pourable or non-pourable).

Royal Icing is a pure white icing that dries to a smooth, hard, matte finish. Besides its lovely finish it also colors beautifully which makes it a favorite of professionals who use it not only for frosting cakes and cookies, but also for intricate piping of decorations (flowers, borders, and lettering). It is simply a mixture of powdered (icing or confectioners) sugar, lemon juice, and raw egg whites.
Buttercream Icing is an easy to make egg-free frosting that works great for decorating cookies for holidays, birthdays and parties. When you need to add coloring to icing, use color paste. If you use liquid coloring, you may need to add more confectioner's sugar."
Recipes for both follow:
Buttercream Icing:
* 1/2 cup shortening
* 1/2 cup butter, softened
* 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
* 4 cups confectioners' sugar
* 2 tablespoons milk
DIRECTIONS
1. In a large bowl, cream together the butter, shortening, and vanilla. Blend in the sugar, one cup at a time, beating well after each addition. Beat in the milk, and continue mixing until light and fluffy. Keep icing covered until ready to decorate.
Royal Icing Using Egg Whites:
2 large egg whites
2 teaspoons fresh lemon juice
3 cups (330 grams) confectioners (powdered or icing) sugar, sifted
Royal Icing Using Meringue Powder:
4 cups (440 grams) confectioners' (powdered or icing) sugar
3 tablespoons (30 grams) meringue powder
1/2 teaspoon extract (vanilla, lemon, almond)
1/2 - 3/4 cup (120 - 180 ml) warm water
Note: Food Coloring (I use Gel Pastes that can be found at cake decorating and party stores or else on-line)
For Royal Icing with Egg Whites: In the bowl of your electric mixer (or with a hand mixer), beat the egg whites with the lemon juice. Add the sifted powdered sugar and beat on low speed until combined and smooth. The icing needs to be used immediately or transferred to an airtight container as royal icing hardens when exposed to air. Cover with plastic wrap when not in use.
For Royal Icing with Meringue Powder: In the bowl of your electric mixer (or with a hand mixer), beat the confectioners' sugar and meringue powder until combined. Add the water and beat on medium to high speed until very glossy and stiff peaks form (5 to 7 minutes). If necessary, to get the right consistency, add more powdered sugar or water. To cover or 'flood' the entire surface of the cookie with icing, the proper consistency is when you lift the beater, the ribbon of icing that falls back into the bowl remains on the surface of the icing for a few seconds before disappearing.
The icing needs to be used immediately or transferred to an airtight container as royal icing hardens when exposed to air. Cover with plastic wrap when not in use.

No, not the canned stuff in the grocery store,
but yes, if you make it yourself and use whole, raw (not pasteurized) cream, organic real (not substitute or imitation) vanilla, and instead of white sugar, use a little maple syrup. :) Cream has lots of nutrients, and the fat in it is good fat. It may be a bit high in calories because of the fat, but as long as you don't eat too much at a time, you should be fine.
How long do you beat whipping cream to form soft peaks?
The time spent whipping the heavy cream depends on experience in arriving at the consistency the cook wishes to reach. Such experience was often learnt by young children being instructed by their mother in many a home kitchen.
