Both of them can be used to bake food, but from the perspective of raw materials, they are obviously different.

Cream is made by separating fat from milk, heating, sterilizing, cooling, crystallizing and mixing. It has natural and rich frankincense and flavor, and is widely used in baking and making desserts.

Vegetable butter refers to a butter substitute made of vegetable oil, and the main raw materials used are trans fatty acids, palm oil or prune oil. These oils are highly stable, that is, they will not be destroyed at high temperatures, and they taste like cream. It can replace the traditional milk to produce cream effect, and is widely used in baking, cakes, biscuits and other food industries.

Method of distinguishing milk cream from vegetable cream

1, look at the color: animal cream is pure cream, which will be naturally milky white with a slight yellow color. Vegetable butter is artificial. Because vegetable butter is synthesized by artificial pigment, its color is mostly bright white, which is whiter than animal butter.

2, taste: animal cream will have a taste that melts in the mouth, and the mouth will not feel greasy after eating, which is very refreshing. And plant cream will have a feeling of "sticking your mouth and living", and even have a feeling of being difficult to swallow, and you will feel a layer of oil in your mouth after eating.

3, hand rubbing method: apply a small amount of cream to the palm and rub. Animal cream will soon disappear in the palm, leaving only a small amount of oil in the palm, just like hand cream. Plant cream is still in the palm of your hand after being rubbed for a long time, and it will even form in the palm of your hand after being rubbed for a long time.
