I believed that it existed, I was just admitting that I didn't know anything about it. You could be more gracious when people are just trying to help.

From a Google search, it looks like cooking cream is a product thickened with stabilizers and emulsifiers so that it won't break.  You want as pure a product as possible, so I would skip this and go for whipping cream (or heavy cream), at a 35-38% fat content.

I've never heard of "cooking cream" but I would recommend whipping cream.
