I ordered the four main brands of heavy cream powder I could find, mixed all and did a taste test straight, as well as mixed with my favorite powdered milk (Peak) to create a "half and half". In order from best to worst these were my preference:
1. Judee's Heavy Cream Powder - closest to the mild sweet taste of fresh cream
2. Anthony's Heavy Cream Powder - reminds me of raw grass fed cream and milk I've gotten from a co-op - has a grassy cow-y taste that I am not a fan of, even if it's actually more natural. Once mixed with powdered milk that farm taste is less pronounced and the two come together well enough to create a fair approximation of fresh full cream milk. If I hadn't tried Judee's I'd probably settle for this one, but since Judee's is much better, I dumped it.
3. WillPowder Heavy Cream Powder - my first taste hit me with a strong industrial refrigerant or walk-in freezer taste - if you've ever had desserts from a restaurant stored too long in their display case so the cream picked up that distinctive refrigerated smell that your own fridge doesn't have, or if you've ever noticed that smell in a restaurant's walk in freezer - that is what this tastes like. I thought maybe after it was mixed and settled overnight or even two days it might dissipate, but it did not. The texture is fine but the taste is not. I dumped it.
4. Hoosier Hill Farm Heavy Cream Powder - an odd unpleasant taste. Nothing like cream. Surprising, because I like other Hoosier Hill Farm products. Dumped it.

Tasty cream after finding the right way to mix it
Reviewed in the United States on October 17, 2019
Finally! After reading reviews and experimenting with mixing this powdered cream with cold, cool, adding ice and finally hot water! I made 2 cups with 12 tbsp of cream. I put in a frothing pitcher and after letting my boiled water cool after a couple of minutes, I poured a little water into the pitcher, let it sit for a minute and continued with adding a bit more, swirling the pitcher halfway through until the water was incorporated into the powder. I could see how the hot water was mixing in very well with powder and refrained from using a spoon or fork to mix. Letting the water bloom in the powder was key and not mixing it right away. I have an immersion blender that I used to blend the mixture after letting it sit. There were no clumps which I experienced with using cold, cool and ice water to mix. I even used the immersion blender to mix with cold water which made it look curdled! The taste was even different! I loved it and I will order more, now that I know how to mix it! I added a photo so you can see what it looks like. It looks like heavy cream!

I've tried premixing it to make coffee creamer. I have tried adding it to soups and gravy. It is absolutely nasty. No matter how I prepare it it smells sour. Pass! Trust me. Bought 2 jugs of this stuff based off of other reviews. What a waste!
