yes you can.

Dad used to run a pub and we used to get catering packs of cream in individual frozen portions (I ate them as lollies wink)

Lightly whip the cream and then put into bags in portions you can use in one go and then freeze. Defrost when needed. This works really well !

was in Lidl today stocking up on some basics - rice, couscous, pasta, etc - and the man at the till showed me a box of food they were giving away as it was soon to go off.

happily, there wasn't much left, but i took 3 containers of single cream that are due to go off 8/5.

can i freeze them?

if not, what the hell can i make with it pronto?

Message
Emphasis: To bold a word, surround it with asterisks, so *hello* will display hello. For underline use _ , so _hello_ gives hello. For italics use ^, so ^hello^ gives hello. To strike out a word, surround it with two hyphens either side, so --dog-- gives dog

Links and smileys: To insert a smiley face,  , type [smile] or :)
For a big grin,  , type [grin] or :o
For a wink,  , type [wink]
For a shocked face,  , type [shock]
For an angry face,  , type [angry]
For an embarrassed face,  , type [blush]
For a sad face,  , type [sad] or :(
For an envious face,  , type [envy]
For a sceptical face,  , type [hmm]

Links The simplest way to insert a link is to enter the link itself, surrounded by [[ and ]]. So if you type [[www.mumsnet.com]], the link will display as http://www.mumsnet.com. If you want your link to display text other than the web address itself, leave a space after the address then add the text before the ]]. So "Look at [[www.mumsnet.com this page]]", would display "Look at this page".
