According to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA), thin cream is officially defined as "light cream" and contains not less than 18 percent but less than 30 percent milkfat. This lower fat content gives thin cream a pourable consistency, making it distinct from its thicker, higher-fat counterparts. Understanding this key difference is essential for achieving the right texture and outcome in various culinary applications.
