What is the difference between coconut cream and cream of cream?

Do either contain alcohol. What are their consistancies, and where can i buy it? I can't eat anything with pulp or small pieces in it.What is the difference between coconut cream and cream of cream?
coconut cream is extracted from the juice of coconuts. Its like the consistency of milk, a little thicker, and if you buy it in a can it will not have any pulp or pieces. As far as I know it does not contain alcohol. Cream of cream is from cows.What is the difference between coconut cream and cream of cream?
one tastes like coconut??
The second lady has it half right, I ama former chef and worked in Asia and the Carribean, were it used alot, coconut cream is the fat that rises to the top of a can of coconut milk, you can mix it into the liquid on the bottom for a liquid componant or use it as a frying medium for currys and other coconut based dishes, cream of coconut is the same thing but with the milky liquid removed and dehydrated, it comes in blocks in both the international section and were they sell the cocktail supplies for the bar in your grocery storte, it is solid like a butter quarter, and is mix into thing to intensify the cocnut flavour, like Pina Colada mix or Asian coconut pudding or rice dishes.





You can dilute the CR of CNT to replace coconut cream from a tin, it is not good then for a fat medium to fry the veg for currys in then.
