What to know about Puramio Whipping Cream Powder Vanilla
A cream powder with no cream or vanilla in it
Puramio Whipping Cream Powder Vanilla is a dry mix built from sugar, hydrogenated vegetable oil and maltodextrin, with emulsifiers (E471, E472b), milk protein and a stabilizer (E340). It is bought by home bakers who want a shelf-stable topping for pastries, cream pies and ice creams. No ingredient percentages are declared.
Per 100 g the powder has 524.5 kcal, 26.8 g fat, 69.4 g carbohydrate and 44.9 g sugar, with 1.5 g protein and 0.2 g fibre. The pack's serve is 10 g, which gives about 52 kcal and 4.5 g sugar, and the pack lists 25 servings. Sodium is negligible at 2.23 mg per 100 g.
The front says Whipping Cream Powder and Vanilla, but the ingredient list has no cream and no vanilla. The only vanilla is a nature-identical flavour mentioned in a back-of-pack note. That gap sets the [L] flag. CleanPlate scores it [L]ED4.
Does Puramio Whipping Cream Powder Vanilla live up to its claims?
Neither the cream in the name nor the vanilla on the front is in the ingredient list, which is what sets the [L] flag. The stay-stiff claim can't be checked from the label.
- Product nameMisleading
“Whipping Cream Powder”
No cream is listed. The base is sugar, hydrogenated vegetable oil and maltodextrin, with milk protein as the only dairy ingredient.
- On the packMisleading
“Vanilla”
No vanilla is in the ingredient list. The back of the pack mentions nature-identical vanilla flavour, which is not listed as an ingredient.
- On the packBe careful
“The cream remains stiff for hours”
This is a performance claim the label can't confirm. The list does include hydrogenated oil, emulsifiers and a stabilizer, which are there for texture.
- On the packBe careful
“Contains added flavours (nature identical)”
The note on the back declares nature-identical vanilla flavouring, but the ingredient list shows no flavour. The vanilla on the front rests on this flavouring alone.
Why Puramio Whipping Cream Powder Vanilla scores [L]ED4
Nutrition is an E on 1.5 g protein and 0.2 g fibre per 100 g. Ingredients are a D because of hydrogenated oil, two additives and the missing cream and vanilla, and risk is a 4 on 44.9 g sugar per 100 g.
Very low nutrient density
- Protein

- Fibre
- 0.2 g
- Vitamins and minerals
- None declared
- Energy
- 525 kcal
01 Nutrition density: why E
Protein is 1.5 g per 100 g and fibre is 0.2 g, so the powder earns no credit on either. Energy is 524.5 kcal per 100 g, from 69.4 g carbohydrate and 26.8 g fat.
No vitamins or minerals are declared, so nothing else lifts the grade.
Scored on protein, fibre and twelve vitamins and minerals, against the Codex and FSSAI "source" and "high" levels, per 100 g and per 100 kcal. Protein also has to supply at least 12.5% of the calories to count, and 25% for full credit.

- Flagged
- Hydrogenated Vegetable Oil, Maltodextrin
02 Ingredient integrity: why D
Sugar, hydrogenated vegetable oil and maltodextrin lead the list, all refined. The hydrogenated oil has no partly or fully qualifier, so it is scored as a partially hydrogenated oil, which costs ingredient points, even though trans fat is declared as 0 g.
The potassium phosphates (E340) and the mono- and diglycerides (E471) each cost further ingredient points. The name and front promise cream and vanilla, but neither is in the list, and that sets the [L] and costs label points.
Scored on how processed the ingredients are, which additives are used and why, and whether the label keeps its promises.
High risk
- Total sugar
- 44.9 g
- Sodium
- 2.2 mg
- Saturated fat
- 0 g
- Trans fat
- 0 g
03 Load risk: why 4
Sugar drives the risk number: 44.9 g per 100 g, all counted as free sugar because sugar is the first ingredient. Energy at 524.5 kcal per 100 g adds to it.
Saturated fat is declared as 0 g and sodium is only 2.23 mg per 100 g, so neither moves the grade. One 10 g serve has about 4.5 g sugar.
Scored on free sugar, sodium, saturated fat and trans fat, each weighed by how strong the evidence of harm is.

What's in Puramio Whipping Cream Powder Vanilla?
Sugar, hydrogenated vegetable oil and maltodextrin lead the list. Watch the sugar and the hydrogenated fat, which has no partly or fully qualifier.
The ingredient list, read for you
Sugar comes first, then hydrogenated vegetable oil and maltodextrin, so the powder is mostly sweetener, fat and a starch-derived bulking carbohydrate. Emulsifiers (E471, E472b) and a stabilizer (E340) help it whip and hold. Milk protein is the only dairy ingredient, and no percentages are declared.
Ingredients to watch
- Hydrogenated vegetable oil (type not stated)Concern
Listed with no partly or fully qualifier, so it is scored as a partially hydrogenated oil. Trans fat is declared as 0 g, but that figure is not accepted without the qualifier. It costs ingredient points.
- SugarConcern

A refined carbohydrate that adds energy and bulk with no fibre or protein.
- SodiumFine
2.23 mg per 100 g, which is negligible.
