camy cream

Camy Cream is a lusciously smooth dessert cream made with mascarpone, sweetened condensed milk, and fresh cream. Perfect as a filling for cakes, layered in trifles, or simply enjoyed by the spoonful, this no-bake treat is a dream come true for dessert lovers. Whether you're hosting a party or need a quick indulgence, this creamy delight is ready in minutes.

What Is Camy Cream?

Camy Cream is a sweet, whipped mascarpone-based cream that originates from Italian dessert traditions. It closely resembles the filling in classic tiramisu but with a slightly denser texture, thanks to the addition of sweetened condensed milk. This cream is often used in Europe as a shortcut for dessert fillings and frostings—making it a beloved choice for both professional and home bakers.

Pro Tips for the Best Camy Cream

  1. Use Cold Cream and Mascarpone: Cold ingredients whip up faster and hold their shape better.
  2. Don’t Overwhip: Stop beating once soft peaks form to avoid a grainy texture.
  3. Fold, Don’t Stir: Gently fold the whipped cream into the mascarpone base to keep it airy.
  4. Add Flavor: For variety, mix in a teaspoon of vanilla extract or lemon zest.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I Use Heavy Whipping Cream Instead of Fresh Liquid Cream?

Yes! Heavy whipping cream (with at least 36% fat) works perfectly and whips up beautifully.

Is Camy Cream Sweet Enough on Its Own?

Absolutely. The condensed milk provides all the sweetness needed, but feel free to adjust based on your taste.

Can I Use This Cream for Cakes?

Definitely. It’s ideal for layering sponge cakes, cupcakes, or filling choux pastries.

Can I Make Camy Cream Ahead of Time?

Yes, it keeps well in the fridge for up to 2 days. Just give it a gentle stir before using.

What’s the Best Way to Serve Camy Cream?

Spoon it into cups with crushed cookies or fresh fruit, or use it to fill your favorite baked goods.

How to Freeze

While Camy Cream can be frozen, it’s best used fresh for optimal texture. If you must freeze it:

  • Store in a freezer-safe container for up to 1 month.
  • Thaw overnight in the fridge.
  • Gently stir before using, though the texture may be slightly softer.

How to Store

Transfer any leftover Camy Cream to an airtight container and refrigerate. It will stay fresh and fluffy for up to 2 days. Before serving again, give it a gentle fold to restore its smooth texture. Avoid reheating, as it’s meant to be served cold.

Ingredients

Fresh liquid cream
1 cup
Mascarpone
2 1/4 cup
Sweetened Condensed Milk
1/2 cup

How To Make Camy Creamy

In a mixing bowl, combine mascarpone with cold condensed milk. Beat for about 5 minutes until smooth and creamy.

In a separate bowl, semi-whip the fresh cream until soft peaks form. Don’t overwhip. Gently fold the whipped cream into the mascarpone mixture using a spatula. Use soft, circular motions to keep the mixture airy.

Cover and refrigerate until ready to use. Serve chilled.
