Why won't my cream float on my irish coffee??

Double cream is too heavy. Makes it claggy imo

You could have a point there actually.

For best results you need the consistency of whipped cream just before it goes 'solid'. Thickened but pourable is best.

That's awful , no!

Squirty cream is only good for one thing and that's a separate forum and thread entirely

Adding to strawberries?

Success last night! 2 spoons of brown sugar, double cream poured very very slowly over back of teaspoon that was slightly just above the coffee. Will do another tonight and post a pic (need to use up the cream)

use spunk, works a treat, and gives everyone an unexpected supprise

The professionals use special cream with microscopic corks attached to the cream to keep it afloat.

Single cream not double.
