I don't know why this is happening but I've made two batches of whipped cream and both have started to melt and break down as I frost the cake. Cake is frozen and it's a "balmy" 50 degrees here today so I know it's not too hot in my house. The recipe calles for 1/2 cream of coconut instead of PS could this be causing problems? Should I stabalize with gelatin? HELP!!!!

you may be whipping it too much. If you whip it too much the fat seperates and essentially creates butter.

I always stabilize my whipped cream, or else it melts like that.
Good luck!

I tried to stablize whipped cream and the geletin just coagulated and left gel clumps in the whipped cream.

Any suggestions on that? I followed the ingredients and instructions to a t.
