Cornwall and Devon, two of the biggest dairy producing regions in the UK, are both famous for their clotted cream. Each region has their own way of serving the “Cream Tea,” which consists of a pot of tea served with scones, clotted cream and jam.

In Cornwall, the scones are spread with the jam first, followed by the clotted cream, allowing for more cream than jam.
