Kerrys do a really nice one - I buy the 1 Litre tetrapak from Bookers wholesale. They keep too...taste as good as fresh.

Are you talking about cream? UHT cream? Do you really buy a litre at a time? Please could you explain further?

PS I love your avatar. Is it bugle?

I've found this lasts lasts longer too. I've also bought both Morrison's and Waitrose own extra thick versions.

It's possible to freeze double cream - as long as you leave some expansion room in the container. Further information on the web if needed! I've tried it with the extra thick and it's been fine in hot drinks after thawing. I'm debating about freezing more to use as a sort of ice cream as well...

Longley Farm Jersey single cream may be thick, but it is almost twice the carbs of their Jersey double (2.3 versus 4g carbs per 100g).

Goodness! That takes me back. We used to have it with tinned peaches for a treat after Sunday lunch.

Yes me to.. evaporated milk with tinned fruit salad after Sunday roast. I loved it and used to have it in tea and coffee as well in fact although I have not had it for years I know I would still like it in coffee because I do not like cream in it
 
Why not get your usual cream and divide it into small pots then freeze them
 

10 minute in our ice cream maker does it, sometimes I use a mix of double cream and yoghurt.
