  1. @oCDo "Neither order is arbitrary. The #Devon way, cream then jam, leans on a dairy heritage where clotted cream was the prized element, spread like butter; the Cornish way, jam then cream, is fiercely tied to Cornish clotted cream sitting proudly on top. Both are centuries-deep regional identity rather than a right-or-wrong rule, which is why the broader afternoon tea tradition treats it as living custom, not etiquette to police." #CreamTea #Cornwall

  3. Aus England haben wir uns letzte Woche #ClottedCream mitgebracht. Heute habe ich zum ersten mal #Scones gebacken und wir haben #CreamTea daheim genießen können, #mjam. Schon mal probiert? #TeaWithMilk #Delicious #Cornwall #Devon #Speciality #foodporn

  5. It’s (definitely not a cynically Made Up To Sell Product marketing exercise) National Cream Tea Day!
    Apparently.
    Which is definitely a legitimate reason to share this explainer video I made previously to try to explain what a proper English Cream Tea is. Largely to try to demonstrate to those unfamiliar with it what clotted cream is like.
    Why not inform yourself about this highly civilised summer tradition? makertube.net/w/ut33zjsZMoFfUL

  6. Fancy a bit of afternoon indulgence? Cream tea isn’t just a snack; it’s a delicious slice of history. With scones, jam, and tea, you’ll be laughing at life's craziness! #CreamTea #AfternoonTea #Foodie

  7. Playing live in the museum gardens, this Sunday, from 2pm is Copper Creek, a five-piece that plays foot-stomping Folk, Celtic & Americana.

  8. Right this is the only way to have a #CreamTea and anyone who states otherwise is wrong. Yes I’ve asked before but there’s new people here well, let’s have a good old debate.

  9. Walking around IKEA wondering why you never get squirty cream in a #creamtea. They could do a 1/3 sized can, to go with the tiny jar of jam.

  10. Already seen one very obvious April Fool Day joke earlier this morning on the #CornwallLive website.

    Here in #SWEngland there's always been a certain amount of rivalry between #Cornwall & #Devon.

    When you have a #CreamTea (i.e. pot of tea and jam/cream on a scone), in #Cornwall the accepted norm is to put jam on the scone first then the cream on top. In #Devon it's the other way round, i.e. cream then jam.

    The article said that the #UKGovernment had banned the Devonian method. 1/2
