We use soymilk as a replacement for everything that calls for milk and it
works fine.  I make "cream" soups, etc. all the time.  Just tart with a
basic white sauce using soymilk instead of milk and it works every time.

For a cream substitute I take the soymilk and add powdered soymilk
(Solait).  It makes it thick and like cream.  I use this with a couple of
drops of lemon in it to replace yogurt.  I add a little oil to it to make
sauces and my son really likes it.

Personally I don't agree with just cutting out substitutions like this as
someone suggested.  Unless people are also allergic to soy these
substitutions are great, work fine with soymilk, and are very nutritious.
