How is clotted cream kept cool during transport?
We keep the clotted cream frozen until dispatch and send it in an insulated package with a cooling pad. This allows the clotted cream to thaw slowly during transport and should be refrigerated as soon as possible upon arrival.
Instructions for Serving the Perfect Cream Tea
Preheat your oven to approximately 190°C and then warm the scones for 10 to 12 minutes.
Using a spoon warmed in boiling water, carefully scoop the clotted cream out of the plastic container (do not mix or stir the clotted cream) and place it in a glass or porcelain bowl.
Serve the scones hot, cut in half horizontally, and spread the clotted cream generously on each half. Top with strawberry jam.
Making the Tea
Always use freshly boiled water.
Preheat your teapot with boiling water.
In the empty, preheated teapot, use approximately one teaspoon of tea for each cup (most teapots contain enough water for six teacups). If you like your tea stronger, add an extra spoon for the pot.
Always pour in the tea first, then add the milk or lemon slice.
If you have an extra pot for hot water, you can always top up the cup with a splash of extra hot water to vary the strength of the tea.
Presentation is crucial for a successful afternoon tea. Always try to use pretty china, silverware, and linen, and, if possible, choose to decorate your china with reference to the season.
Is clotted cream safe to eat if left at room temperature for a few days?
As mentioned above, clotted cream actually has a fairly long shelf life. However, since we cannot guarantee delivery conditions, we specify a much shorter best-before date of 5 days from dispatch. If delivery is not possible, the cream is sometimes held overnight in a sorting depot. This is unlikely to affect the cream. However, since we cannot guarantee transit conditions, all orders are placed at your own risk.
What is clotted cream?
Clotted cream is a type of thick cream made from unhomogenized cow's milk. The milk is heated in shallow pans and left to stand for several hours. During this time, the cream collects on the surface and forms lumps ("clots"). Purists prefer milk from cows from the British counties of Devon or Cornwall. Clotted cream is eaten as part of cream tea with scones and jam. It has a fat content of at least 55%.
``` Cornish clotted cream is a protected designation of origin for cream made according to a traditional recipe in Cornwall.
Our clotted cream producer
Although clotted cream's appeal has spread nationally, clotted cream production is still dominated by producers in the Southwest. Over 10 tons are produced daily. Langage Farm is the largest producer in Devon. They were the first carbon-neutral dairy in the UK with an on-site anaerobic digester plant that generates the farm's electricity from food waste.
