Animal cream is delicious, but it is not easy to preserve, and its shape is more troublesome than plant cream. The key is that it is more expensive. If there is no special label, daily cream cakes are generally made of plant cream.
It is better to use animal-based butter. Vegetable butter is hydrogenated vegetable oil. Although its taste and properties have been greatly improved, it is not very good for health. Many things can also be added to the cream to add flavor, such as chocolate, nut puree, espresso powder, coconut oil, etc. There are also some that add a small amount of fruit pulp to change the taste and color.
As far as pairings are concerned, strawberries and cream actually have a balanced taste, and cherry bitter chocolate and white cream are also a good match. If it is a cake cup, you can also add chopped nuts. For special flavors, you can also choose matcha, coffee, chestnut puree, taro puree, etc., which are also delicious.
