One thing is making sure to beat/whisk slow (I use low speed on a good hand mixer) and steady and to be careful to stop in time and not over whisk it or it does curdle and/or get too firm and butter-like. You really want it slightly liquidy. <br /><br />Hope you haveDeb in Hawaiihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12753889028487254096noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2696248883608841507.post-48095166740656756392015-09-17T11:24:12.981-10:002015-09-17T11:24:12.981-10:00We did this twice and ended up with turkish deligh...We did this twice and ended up with turkish delight butter, don't know what went wrong, as we added the mixture to the cream it went yellow and clumpedMike foyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01215819383290390461noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2696248883608841507.post-8981314445503660202010-09-29T08:23:58.310-10:002010-09-29T08:23:58.310-10:00Hi Mahalo

It conjurs up images of sumptious feasts at the courts of the Tudors. I came across your site by accident . . . I have recently started up my own blog . . . Marmaduke Scarlet!
