A potted history of Devonshire Creams
P1 P2
 Double
Devon Cream
Previous
Versatile Double Devon Cream contains a minimum of 48% milk fat and offers a
distinctive fresh dairy flavor. Spoon it straight from the jar onto fresh
berries and sprinkle with a touch of sugar for dessert. Add depth and richness
to savory sauces for shellfish or steak, or just stir some into fresh pasta,
adding freshly ground salt and pepper for a simple yet delicious supper dish.
Stir the cream well to achieve a pouring consistency - ideal for Irish coffee -
or for a lighter result simply add a little milk. Buy It, Now! |More Info!
Clotted Cream
Traditional Clotted Cream contains a minimum of 55% milk fat. It has a rich flavor and a thick, margarine-like texture, which makes it the perfect accompaniment to scones and jam for a traditional Cream Tea. This cream is perfect with pie, fresh fruit, cakes, and even Jell-O. You can also use it as a pastry filling. Whereas Double Devon Cream is called for in many recipes, Clotted Cream is generally served as is.
Flavored Clotted Creams
Clotted Cream is ideally suited for blending with
brandy and
liqueurs. Try Clotted Cream with Brandy stirred into hot coffee for an after-dinner treat, or to add the perfect finish to vanilla or chocolate ice cream. Clotted Cream with Grand Marnier is the decadent choice to serve with fresh strawberries, or on pancakes, crepes and croissants. Clotted Cream with
Drambuie is unmistakably aromatic and warming; wonderful on traditional Christmas fare such as mince pies and plum puddings, or for topping a festive trifle. Clotted Cream with Strawberries combines the rich sweetness of strawberries with mellow Clotted Cream - use it on croissants or fill a special cake. It will also melt beautifully atop warm pancakes.
 Tea, Cream and Tradition
Both cream and tea are regarded as being very "English" foods. Here are the most common examples:
Tea is still regarded as the traditional refreshing and comforting drink you can enjoy anytime - in the morning, during the day, at night - and in stressful situations. Tea is often consumed during a struggle, after an argument or to soothe one's spirits after an emotional shock. It is still fondly referred to in many ways, including "having a cuppa", "brewing up", "char", "have a Rosie Lee", and "put the kettle on".
Not to be confused with "High Tea" - a large, formal ritual of sandwiches, cakes, scones, jam and Clotted Cream, "Cream Tea" is a treat, and often a social or family affair, served when visiting a tearoom or restaurant. Cream Tea is especially popular in Devon or Cornwall where the cream is locally made and readily available. During Cream Tea, delicious scones are spread with jam, topped with rich Clotted Cream and served with piping hot tea. Buy It, Now!|More Info!
