Difference Between Buttermilk and Cream. Cream is high in milkfat and is present naturally in whole milk. When milk is not homogenized and left to stand, it separates into cream and fat-free milk as the milkfat-rich cream floats to the top. Cream can be churned and the fat from the cream solidifies into butter, leaving behind a low-fat liquid that is slightly acidic. This is traditional buttermilk.
