So what can you do (besides rustling up the most indulgent bowl of cornflakes ever)?\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Make cr\u00e8me fra\u00eeche.<\/p>\n<p>Cr\u00e8me fra\u00eeche, something you\u2019ll see listed on restaurant menus enriching a sauce or topping a dessert, is simply heavy cream combined with a culture of friendly bacteria (e.g., the lactobacilli found in yogurt) to turn it into a rich spread. It\u2019s thicker than yogurt or sour cream but softer than cream cheese, and its flavor is a tasty mix of sweet cream and mild tang. While you can probably find cr\u00e8me fra\u00eeche in most grocery stores, it\u2019s usually quite pricey. Thus, making your own from leftover cream is a definite win-win.\u00a0<\/p>\n<figure role=\"group\">\n<div class=\"embedded-entity image-with-photo-credit__wrapper\">\n        <picture><source srcset=\"https:\/\/www.kingarthurbaking.com\/sites\/default\/files\/styles\/scaled_large\/public\/2025-05\/turn-leftover-heavy-cream-into-cre%CC%80me-fraiche-1.jpeg?itok=zCrvu-A5 1x, https:\/\/www.kingarthurbaking.com\/sites\/default\/files\/styles\/scaled_large_2x\/public\/2025-05\/turn-leftover-heavy-cream-into-cre%CC%80me-fraiche-1.jpeg?itok=nXhkZ57l 2x\" media=\"(min-width: 768px)\" type=\"image\/jpeg\" width=\"900\" height=\"900\"><source srcset=\"https:\/\/www.kingarthurbaking.com\/sites\/default\/files\/styles\/scaled_medium\/public\/2025-05\/turn-leftover-heavy-cream-into-cre%CC%80me-fraiche-1.jpeg?itok=ujsrtyKN 1x, https:\/\/www.kingarthurbaking.com\/sites\/default\/files\/styles\/scaled_medium_2x\/public\/2025-05\/turn-leftover-heavy-cream-into-cre%CC%80me-fraiche-1.jpeg?itok=2T-nDfq4 2x\" media=\"(min-width: 480px)\" type=\"image\/jpeg\" width=\"700\" height=\"700\"><source srcset=\"https:\/\/www.kingarthurbaking.com\/sites\/default\/files\/styles\/scaled_small\/public\/2025-05\/turn-leftover-heavy-cream-into-cre%CC%80me-fraiche-1.jpeg?itok=I4K16DOd 1x, https:\/\/www.kingarthurbaking.com\/sites\/default\/files\/styles\/scaled_large\/public\/2025-05\/turn-leftover-heavy-cream-into-cre%CC%80me-fraiche-1.jpeg?itok=zCrvu-A5 2x\" type=\"image\/jpeg\" width=\"425\" height=\"425\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"425\" height=\"425\" src=\"https:\/\/www.kingarthurbaking.com\/sites\/default\/files\/styles\/scaled_small\/public\/2025-05\/turn-leftover-heavy-cream-into-cre%CC%80me-fraiche-1.jpeg?itok=I4K16DOd\" alt=\"A carton of buttermilk and container of plain whole-milk yogurt sitting on a counter.\"\/><\/p>\n<p>  <\/source><\/source><\/source><\/picture>\n<p>  PJ Hamel<\/p>\n<\/div><figcaption>A tablespoon of buttermilk, yogurt, or sour cream is all that&#8217;s needed to turn a cup of heavy cream into homemade cr\u00e8me fra\u00eeche.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h3>How to make cr\u00e8me fra\u00eeche: Select your culture \u00a0<\/h3>\n<p>Turning heavy cream into cr\u00e8me fra\u00eeche requires just one additional ingredient: the friendly bacteria present in buttermilk, yogurt, or sour cream. Just the tiniest bit of any of these three dairy products will, in time and via fermentation, turn cream into cr\u00e8me.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>All of these cultures work well, each one yielding a slightly different result. While there was no difference in time needed to thicken, our test results show that cr\u00e8me fra\u00eeche started with buttermilk is slightly tarter than that made with plain yogurt; and cr\u00e8me made with sour cream is tarter still.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>If you\u2019re looking for added richness rather than tangy flavor (and since it\u2019s easier and less expensive to get a small container of plain yogurt than one of sour cream or buttermilk), plain unsweetened yogurt would be your culture of choice. For best results, choose whole-milk (not low-fat) unsweetened yogurt with live active cultures (L. acidophilus, S. thermophilus, L. bulgaricus, and the like). \u00a0<\/p>\n<figure role=\"group\">\n<div class=\"embedded-entity image-with-photo-credit__wrapper\">\n        <picture><source srcset=\"https:\/\/www.kingarthurbaking.com\/sites\/default\/files\/styles\/scaled_large\/public\/2025-05\/turn-leftover-heavy-cream-into-cre%CC%80me-fraiche-3.jpeg?itok=cOJAzngI 1x, https:\/\/www.kingarthurbaking.com\/sites\/default\/files\/styles\/scaled_large_2x\/public\/2025-05\/turn-leftover-heavy-cream-into-cre%CC%80me-fraiche-3.jpeg?itok=1sFQO8hW 2x\" media=\"(min-width: 768px)\" type=\"image\/jpeg\" width=\"900\" height=\"836\"><source srcset=\"https:\/\/www.kingarthurbaking.com\/sites\/default\/files\/styles\/scaled_medium\/public\/2025-05\/turn-leftover-heavy-cream-into-cre%CC%80me-fraiche-3.jpeg?itok=wNBSGp2L 1x, https:\/\/www.kingarthurbaking.com\/sites\/default\/files\/styles\/scaled_medium_2x\/public\/2025-05\/turn-leftover-heavy-cream-into-cre%CC%80me-fraiche-3.jpeg?itok=158CNhPY 2x\" media=\"(min-width: 480px)\" type=\"image\/jpeg\" width=\"700\" height=\"650\"><source srcset=\"https:\/\/www.kingarthurbaking.com\/sites\/default\/files\/styles\/scaled_small\/public\/2025-05\/turn-leftover-heavy-cream-into-cre%CC%80me-fraiche-3.jpeg?itok=Wn5x50YE 1x, https:\/\/www.kingarthurbaking.com\/sites\/default\/files\/styles\/scaled_large\/public\/2025-05\/turn-leftover-heavy-cream-into-cre%CC%80me-fraiche-3.jpeg?itok=cOJAzngI 2x\" type=\"image\/jpeg\" width=\"425\" height=\"395\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"425\" height=\"395\" src=\"https:\/\/www.kingarthurbaking.com\/sites\/default\/files\/styles\/scaled_small\/public\/2025-05\/turn-leftover-heavy-cream-into-cre%CC%80me-fraiche-3.jpeg?itok=Wn5x50YE\" alt=\"Heavy cream and yogurt stirred together in a small glass jar, prior to fermentaiton, showing the mixture's liquid texture.\"\/><\/p>\n<p>  <\/source><\/source><\/source><\/picture>\n<p>  PJ Hamel<\/p>\n<\/div><figcaption>After some time in a cozy environment, this liquid mixture of cream and culture will turn into thick, rich cr\u00e8me fra\u00eeche.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h3>How to make cr\u00e8me fra\u00eeche: Combine heavy cream and culture<\/h3>\n<p>You\u2019ll need just a small amount of culture to ferment your heavy cream: 1 tablespoon (14g) yogurt per 1 cup (227g) heavy cream will do it.

Since it\u2019s easiest to weigh, use 14g culture for every 227g of cream.\u00a0<\/p>\n<h3>Can I speed up the process by increasing the percentage of culture?\u00a0<\/h3>\n<p>Potentially, but there\u2019s a downside: The more culture you use (up to 3 tablespoons per cup of cream), the tangier your resulting cr\u00e8me will taste: more sour cream-y than just plain creamy. \u201cRushed\u201d cr\u00e8me fra\u00eeche may also lose its beautiful smooth texture and become a bit grainy. In addition, simply increasing the amount of culture may not hurry the process at all, since there are other factors involved (temperature, type of culture). So unless you\u2019re having a cr\u00e8me fra\u00eeche emergency, it\u2019s best to let it take its own sweet time.\u00a0<\/p>\n<h3>Can I use cr\u00e8me fra\u00eeche in baking?\u00a0<\/h3>\n<p>Yes! While we can\u2019t guarantee it\u2019ll work in every recipe, we\u2019ve found that substituting cr\u00e8me fra\u00eeche for cream cheese in recipes where it\u2019s not the main ingredient (and wouldn\u2019t play a major role in structure) works well. For instance, while we wouldn\u2019t use cr\u00e8me fra\u00eeche in a cheesecake recipe, it works well in these <a href=\"https:\/\/www.kingarthurbaking.com\/recipes\/herbed-cream-cheese-biscuits-recipe\" target=\"_blank\">Herbed Cream Cheese Biscuits<\/a>.\u00a0<\/p>\n<figure role=\"group\">\n<div class=\"embedded-entity image-with-photo-credit__wrapper\">\n        <picture><source srcset=\"https:\/\/www.kingarthurbaking.com\/sites\/default\/files\/styles\/scaled_large\/public\/2025-05\/turn-leftover-heavy-cream-into-cre%CC%80me-fraiche-4.jpeg?itok=lz9g_hBI 1x, https:\/\/www.kingarthurbaking.com\/sites\/default\/files\/styles\/scaled_large_2x\/public\/2025-05\/turn-leftover-heavy-cream-into-cre%CC%80me-fraiche-4.jpeg?itok=lnMD_DRy 2x\" media=\"(min-width: 768px)\" type=\"image\/jpeg\" width=\"900\" height=\"900\"><source srcset=\"https:\/\/www.kingarthurbaking.com\/sites\/default\/files\/styles\/scaled_medium\/public\/2025-05\/turn-leftover-heavy-cream-into-cre%CC%80me-fraiche-4.jpeg?itok=MKzVeELh 1x, https:\/\/www.kingarthurbaking.com\/sites\/default\/files\/styles\/scaled_medium_2x\/public\/2025-05\/turn-leftover-heavy-cream-into-cre%CC%80me-fraiche-4.jpeg?itok=mE1hybYK 2x\" media=\"(min-width: 480px)\" type=\"image\/jpeg\" width=\"700\" height=\"700\"><source srcset=\"https:\/\/www.kingarthurbaking.com\/sites\/default\/files\/styles\/scaled_small\/public\/2025-05\/turn-leftover-heavy-cream-into-cre%CC%80me-fraiche-4.jpeg?itok=HADkj4tJ 1x, https:\/\/www.kingarthurbaking.com\/sites\/default\/files\/styles\/scaled_large\/public\/2025-05\/turn-leftover-heavy-cream-into-cre%CC%80me-fraiche-4.jpeg?itok=lz9g_hBI 2x\" type=\"image\/jpeg\" width=\"425\" height=\"425\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"425\" height=\"425\" src=\"https:\/\/www.kingarthurbaking.com\/sites\/default\/files\/styles\/scaled_small\/public\/2025-05\/turn-leftover-heavy-cream-into-cre%CC%80me-fraiche-4.jpeg?itok=HADkj4tJ\" alt=\"Blueberry muffin cake on a plate with a dollop of creme fraiche on top. \"\/><\/p>\n<p>  <\/source><\/source><\/source><\/picture>\n<p>  PJ Hamel<\/p>\n<\/div><figcaption><a href=\"https:\/\/www.kingarthurbaking.com\/recipes\/easy-blueberry-muffin-cake-recipe\">Easy Blueberry Muffin Cake<\/a> topped with a dollop of homemade cr\u00e8me fra\u00eeche.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>And of course, cr\u00e8me fra\u00eeche is also a wonderful topping, its tangy flavor a lovely complement to sweet desserts like <a href=\"https:\/\/www.kingarthurbaking.com\/recipes\/flourless-chocolate-cake-recipe\" target=\"_blank\">Flourless Chocolate Cake<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.kingarthurbaking.com\/recipes\/old-fashioned-pecan-pie-recipe\" target=\"_blank\">Old Fashioned Pecan Pie<\/a>.
