love this lite thickened cream. Great consistency, flavour and light so more healthier. I use this with fruit, desserts, in my coffee. very convenient

Danielle gudgeon ✓

Coles Light Thickened Cream is a great lighter option — it still gives that creamy texture but isn’t as heavy, and I find it works really well in cooking or pouring over desserts without feeling too rich.

Jodie ✓

great quality and taste of cream, it’s perfect for pumpkin soup

Janice Whittle ✓

Such good quality. Can be used in so many recipes. I love that the lots is so easy to open for older people.

This Light Thickened Coles brand Cream has reduced fat, but is still creamy and delicious. I like that this cream thickens up easily when whipped, and is incredibly versatile: it's good on scones, baked in cheesecakes, in savoury sauces, and cakes. I also like that even though this is a high quality product, it is also incredibly affordable at just a few dollars per tub. I also love that this cream is made from milk from Australian raised dairy cows. A low fat, creamy, and versatile product. 5 stars!

love that this is a healthier version of full fat cream, but still tastes great

irene valentina ✓

glad that there’s low fat option for people with cholesterol and health conscious . taste as good and creamy as original I would say!

sonya ✓

yummy and perfect for all occasions I highly recommend this product as it keeps me going.

Grace O'Loughlin ✓

The light thickened cream was smooth, creamy, and worked really well in both sweet and savoury dishes. It had a nice richness without feeling too heavy, making it a great option if you want something a bit lighter than regular thickened cream. It blended easily into sauces and whipped up nicely for desserts.

shoppaholic ✓

nice affordable light cream, perfect to whip for a dessert, in a potato bake or creamy pasta

Rachel ✓

i’ve found this cream tastes almost if not the same as the regular thickened cream but has better calories and it’s still easy to use for whipped cream and in creamy recipes

Chlo Sharpe-Lockhart ✓

Absolutely delicious! This was packed with flavour and cooked perfectly. The texture was just right and every bite was super satisfying. You can really tell quality ingredients were used, and it was seasoned beautifully without being overpowering. Definitely something I’d order again and happily recommend to anyone who loves good food.

jamz ✓

tasty cream. I like the light version because it is healthier. it’s super versatile I use it in my pasta as a thickener

Gemma Laidlaw ✓

This is wonderful cream. I like that it is a smaller size because it’s the perfect amount to use. When putting it into a dish. It also is a perfect amount. If you want to whip it and turn it into whipped cream the small container means that it is easy to use an easy to store personally I used this container to add it into my Marry me chicken and it taste delicious.

Ruthp Shopper ✓

a great oriced thickened cream that doesn’t dissapoint. great for adding to cooking and baking

JD ✓

This Coles brand Light Thickened Cream has lower fat but full flavour. It thickens up quickly when whipped, or can be used in baking delicious things, like cheescakes. It is also excellent in soup. I also like that this cream is made from Australian milk, and that it is often for sale at a relatively affordable price in comparison to other brands. 5 stars!

Chi ✓

Coles Light Thickened Cream is a lower-fat alternative that still thickens well for cooking, sauces, and light desserts. While it’s a healthier option, it doesn’t whip as easily and lacks the rich flavor and stability of full-fat cream, making it less ideal for high-heat recipes or indulgent dishes.

Az ✓

no complaints really. it does the job for the price. what'd you expect from home brand cream

Stephanie Matthews ✓

love having a creamy sauce with less calories! even if a recipe calls for 250mls, I add the whole container, otherwise that last 50mls goes to waste.

Jyoti ✓

creamy texture, fresh and thick. Taste is sweet good to make cream n add strawberries 🍓

Zaira ✓

such a nice and light cream and sweet and milky good portion for Indian food

GEORGIA R HUTCHINGS ✓

great for cooking, perfect sizing for the recipe I was after

Cathy ✓

I used this with some nice ripe bananas and made caramel bananas for dessert. I like that it’s not too rich because it’s light cream not full fat.

Jessica ✓

great homebrand, can be for cooking and nice size

Rhonda Hutchinson ✓

tastes just like full cram but less fat. small bottle so this can be an advantage if you only need a little. the lid clips back in easily too. only downfall is it goes off quickly once opened

Alyson ✓

great alternative to the 'brand' named. Works great when making green chicken curry

Cindy ✓

I made a typical recipe of soup with this thickened cream, the flavor was very good and also it’s light then can enjoy without remorse

Jodie ✓

Good for baking. Good for eating with pumpkin soup.

jazz ✓

Smooth and creamy with a mild flavour that blends well in sauces and desserts. Lighter texture is great for cooking, though not as rich as regular cream

Kate Rao ✓

Best cream for any recipe taste amazing no matter it’s Light

Guest User ✓

excellent price, usually I use it for pasta or to make pies. make the meals better.

motherking ✓

cook it with curry. I would rather buy the full cream one next time. it's a bit watery

emily partridge ✓

worked perfect in our cooking. very versatile

Zara ✓

nice light cream option. used in cooking and it worked fine

Martin Santacoloma ✓

great flavour and quality. the size is perfect . the light one is the best

Bridget Elizabeth ✓

it’s in the name. light. thick and creamy. con is the lid. it can be a bit finicky and not really resealable (contents to be used on opening). I use this for carbonara pasta.

Ceri ✓

the best way to make a mushroom sauce! and you can have the taste without the guilt so love having a light option

Rachel ✓

it’s good, nice and creamy. i use it mainly for pasta sauces - i made a rosé sauce for a seafood pasta with it and everyone loved it

Destiny Nicks ✓

perfect balance of sweet and thickness, I love using it for beef strognoff and my curries

Joanne ✓

good to make dessert with lower fat with creamy base

Ben ✓

good price, decent taste. Not bad for price but not exceptional

Christina Park ✓

I love using cream not only for baking, but to make creamy pasta :) pairs perfectly with mushrooms

Bec ✓

Love the value of this light cream. Works well in most recipes unless you need to whip it. Tastes the same as regular cream just less fat

Martin Frinking ✓

Easy to use, tasty cream. Coles branded but you wouldn’t know the difference, and the fact that it’s light cream meaning it’s a little healthier matters. I made my wife a creamy prawn pasta, and made a potatoe bake with ours. Both tasted great.

Holly Cicino ✓

The Coles Light Cream was smooth and versatile, with a nice creamy texture without feeling too heavy. I found it whipped well for desserts and also blended easily into sauces and soups without splitting. The flavour is mild but still rich enough to give meals a nice touch of creaminess. Being a lighter option, it felt a bit healthier while still delivering good taste and consistency. Overall, it’s a reliable and affordable staple to keep in the fridge for both sweet and savoury recipes.

Ying Lee ✓

This cream is smooth, light, and easy to whip, perfect for desserts, adds creamy texture without feeling heavy.

Cassidy ✓

always a reliable product. love the reasonable price

Andrew ✓

The cream is decent for everyday cooking, but it doesn’t whip up as well as regular thickened cream and lacks richness. It’s a lighter option, but the texture can feel a bit thin in sauces and desserts. Good for those watching fat intake, but not the best choice if you want full flavour and creaminess.

Tran Pham ✓

not the best for whipping and making cold foam for drinks, but works well for making white sauces for pasta

Joe Salandra ✓

Coles Light Thickened Cream is a versatile and reliable option for those looking to add a touch of richness to their dishes without the full guilt. With a 25% fat content, it strikes a good balance between a creamy texture and a lighter profile. It works well in both sweet and savory applications, from dolloping on desserts to adding body to sauces and soups. Overall, Coles Light Thickened Cream is a solid choice for everyday cooking, offering a healthier alternative without sacrificing too much in terms of flavor and consistency.

Jess Shopper ✓

easy to use and goes well in things. a bit watery but thats to be expected in a light cream

Paulina ✓

Excellent product, fresh and perfect for cooking
