We used to have our milk delivered, and as soon as you heard the milkman put the bottles down, you had to fetch it in, or the sparrows would pierce the foil top, and drink most of the cream on top.
We can still get, and use, fresh single and double cream in our supermarkets her in the UK.
My wife and I have never used manufactured whipping cream, only fresh.
My Pavlovas, are a thing of gastronomic excellence, never mind the artery clogging properties!
