No, because the scientific composition of the cellular structure of half and half has less oxygen-phosphate molecules than heavy cream. Although, if you alter the cellular activity by using a magnetic beam to separate the atoms and fuse the neutrons and protons, you can get heavy half and half, which is biologically approximate to heavy cream.
If you are using the heavy cream to whip, half and half won't work. If you are using the cream just for flavor and texture, half and half can be used and will work fine.

Can you use heavy whipping cream instead of half and half?
Use equal parts of cream and milk to replace the same amount of half-and-half. Half-and-half is half milk, half light cream. Your substitute will have a little more butterfat than regular half-and-half, but will work in most recipes.

Yes. As a matter of fact, heavy cream would make a lovely quiche. Just don't whip it too long or it will solidify.

it depends on what type of cream half and half;;;heavy;;;;light;;or are we talking about cream of tartat no matter i have a substitution for you =) for half and half cream you can use 7/8 cup milk plus 1 tablespoon butter heavy cream you can use 3/4 cup milk plus 1/3 cup milk for light cream you can use 3/4 cup milk plus 3 tablespoons butter this is all for one cup of the cream and for cream of tartar you can use 2 teaspoons lemon juice for every 1 teaspoon of cream of tartar so 1 teaspoon of cream of tartar is equal to 2 teaspoons of lemon juice Let me know if i helped or not and if the frosting came out good and right for you =)
What kind of cream do you use for homemade ice cream?
Pure cream high in milk fat is best for ice cream. Read the label: it should say, contains cream (and give the percentage of fat) and might also list the small amount of water which naturally occurs in cream. The cream shouldn't contain any thickeners (gelatine and so on), colours, flavours, sugars or preservatives. Just cream. Heavy cream (called double cream in the UK) and light cream (called single cream in the UK) are the two types of cream most people use when making homemade ice cream. Heavy cream is higher in butterfat content. See the 'Cream in ice cream' link below for more information.
