Question
Given a cream formulation that resulted in a liquid, lotion-like consistency, how can the formula be adjusted to achieve a thicker cream texture suitable for packaging in a jar?
Answer
To make your cream formulation thicker and suitable for a jar instead of a lotion-like consistency, you should adjust the amount of the emulsifier/thickener. In your formula, "Butter Cream Maker" is the key ingredient for creating the cream texture.
Increase the percentage of "Butter Cream Maker" in your formulation. You are currently using 6%. Try increasing it gradually, for example, to 7%, 8%, or more, until you achieve the desired thick cream consistency. Test small batches with different percentages to find the ideal amount.
