Making whipped cream manually can be a bit tricky. You’ve got to make sure your ingredients are cold enough to whip.
But you also have to watch out for over-whipping, which can lead to the cream curdling and being one step away from turning into butter.
Then once you’ve got the exact fluffiness that you want, it could be gone by the next time you want to use it.
Why does whipped cream turn runny?
If the cream is being whipped for the first time and it still isn’t a fluffy enough texture then the answer is simple – it needs to be whipped more. Make sure to keep an eye on it though because overwhipping the cream will also make the texture undesirable.
However, if it is whipped cream that might be a few days old and looks more runny than it should, don’t worry – that is completely normal. Whipped cream breaks down after sitting around for too long.
This process is sped up by warm temperature too, so it’s important to keep whipped cream in the refrigerator as much as possible.
Fortunately, if whipped cream has turned into a more liquid substance, it is still salvageable.
