Yep definitely putting it in too soon I'd say as well. You don't want to actually cook the sour cream, it will definitely curdle then. It might even be that you don't want it to the boil I think.

do not boil after you have added cream. Just heat till hot enough or it will split.

We had pumpkin soup tonight, and when I went to the fridge to get the sour cream SOMEONEhad used it and put the empty container back in the fridge grr! Instead I added 3/4 cup of hot (but not boiling) milk and a dash of fresh cream, stir thru to combine, but do not leave on the heat or allow to boil, and serve immediately. It was beautiful.

I let the consumers put in their own sour cream. Therefore I put it into a nice bowl on the table. That is the appropriate time to add sour cream - once the soup has been served up. Not everyone wants sour cream.
