5% or 6% Light Cream or Cream and Milk Blend for Coffee

A blend of milk and cream, 5% or 6% Light Cream is a little richer than whole milk but lighter than other creams - a perfect balance for everyday use. It is available in cartons. Add a splash for a creamier texture in smoothies, coffee, hot chocolate and other recipes calling for milk.
