Default Butyric acid - in cream ?

Never ask two questions in one post !
This was the first part of the posting "Hot chocolate drink -
strange":
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I was looking for super hot chocolate drink recipes on the Net and I
came across one on the website of a Belgium chocolate museum (sounds
authoritative).
As well as full milk, this recipe said
"250 g (I think they meant mls !) of fresh cream with 35% butyric
acid"
Wikipedia mentions rancid butter as the least obnoxious odour from
butyric acid !
What's going on here ?
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
(Many thanks to those who gave or pointed to recipes - that was the
second part !)

Well, I can't say what the recipe writer had in mind, but 35%
butterfat
is an acceptable level for cream. Maybe they just had a hard time
expressing it.
