Post subject: Nestle whipping cream - am I blind?

I'm making my own curd cheese every week.

Always used the small package of Nestle whipping cream (250 ml ) - good price.

But now I can't find the small packages anymore?
Carrefour, Tesco, City Shop etc. all don't have it anymore? Did Nestle stop producing whipping cream?

I think the whipping cream of Le President, Anchor ...is far too expensive.
Tesco now only has the small packages from Le President and Paul's ... Crying or Very sad

Is there still a supermarket selling the small packages?

METRO ... around 10 kuai for one as far as I remember. I bought some there last week. I agree that other brands are too expensive.

Hi brout, thanks for the info Smile

At least the supermarket at Grand Gateway has some packages again.

Also, the meat market at CaoBao lu has it. Bought it last saturday, 25¥ for the big package, 10¥ for the small one (of course, took the big one!).
90¥ for a block of cheese (cheaper than last time I bought it).

Ic, I really need to check this market Smile The cheese selection sounds very interesting!

10 kuai for the small package of cream is a really good price.

I hardly ever dare to buy the large packet since I'm not so sure how long it can stay in the fridge when you once opened it? Any experience?

When I open a big pack, it lasts around one week, even more. But usualy I just buy a big one when I know I will use it all.Never had any problem with it.
I need to find the card of the market, then I post the correct address here. I love it there!
