Ah, the cream tea. A symphony of scones, jam, and clotted cream that transcends mere snacking and elevates it to an art form. And while cream teas grace tea tables across the land, there's something undeniably special about the Cornish way.
Dive in with us as we explore the world of cream teas, why they deserve a spotlight, and how the Cornish do it best.
The Cream of the Crop:
Did you know? Over 70% of Brits indulge in a cream tea at least once a year, with 25-34 year olds leading the charge.
That's a lot of scones getting toasted! And with good reason. Studies show that afternoon tea breaks can boost morale, improve social interaction, and even enhance creativity. So, pour yourself a cuppa, because we're about to get statistical:
The Cornish Conundrum:
Now, here's where things get interesting. While the jam vs. cream order may divide the nation, in Cornwall, there's a clear victor: jam first, always. This tradition, passed down through generations, ensures the jam's vibrant sweetness doesn't get masked by the cream's richness. Each bite becomes a harmonious dance of tart and creamy, sweet and savoury.
From Picnic Blanket to Tea Room Bliss:
But Cornish cream teas are more than just the perfect scone-to-cream-to-jam ratio. They're about the setting, the experience. Imagine picnics by the sea, gulls calling overhead and waves crashing a rhythmic background beat. Or picture yourself nestled in a cozy tea room, the air thick with the aroma of baking scones and fragrant tea. It's about slowing down, connecting with loved ones, and truly savouring the moment.

Pasties were gorgeous but the scones were the best I have ever tasted. Light and fluffy and so fresh even though they had a long journey to get to me. Excellent value for money
The whole box was full of goodies, the pasty’s were large and they split them. They loved the heart shaped too
Really good scones and huge pasties - great valentine's gift!
Ordered the Black Forest cream tea for myself & my partner for a valentines treat & it was delicious. A great idea for a new twist on the traditional cream tea. Could maybe have done with a slightly bigger pot of clotted cream for the four scones, as it was a bit in the small size.
But we both enjoyed it nonetheless.
