milk and cream read your question .Can anyone tell me the difference between evaporated milk and can cream?
Condensed milk, also known as sweetened condensed milk, is cow's milk from which water has been removed and to which sugar has been added, yielding a very thick, sweet product that can last for years without refrigeration if unopened.





Evaporated milk, also known as dehydrated milk, is a shelf-stable canned milk product with about 60% of the water removed from fresh milk. It differs from condensed milk, which contains added sugar. Condensed milk requires less processing since the added sugar inhibits bacterial growth.





When mixed with an equal amount of water, evaporated milk becomes the equivalent of fresh milk. This means the actual liquid product takes up half the space of fresh milk, making it attractive for shipping purposes and can a shelf life of months or even years, depending upon the brand. This made evaporated milk very popular before refrigeration as a safe and reliable substitute for perishable fresh milk, that could be shipped easily to locations lacking the means of safe milk production. Households in the affluent Western World use it most often today for desserts and baking due to its unique flavor.
