Clotted cream or double cream?

[Lanny]

Having read in these forums that the fats that are best eaten are the natural unprocessed ones, I’m wondering about clotted cream. Given that it’s cooked cream, does that count as processed?

Which is better double cream or clotted cream? Is the nutritional values the same?

Just checked my little faithful app @Lanny
30gr Double cream stated at 1g/carb and Clotted cream 30gr also at 1gr/carb
Myself I always use double cream but here it is not available so I am using whipped cream which is slightly higher at 3gr/carb per 100ml.
I follow the theory that the fats slow down any carbs
Don't know if that helps 🙂

@Lanny hi. I would safely bet on double cream as opposed to clotted cream. Less carbs in double cream as Vince stated above.

Thanks, Vince & wirralass. 🙂 Will stick to double cream then. But, love the occasional scone with jam & clotted cream! Haven’t had it in over a year at least, as it sends my BS skyhigh & since being ill in hospital that’s the last thing I need! 😱
