Re scone topping order

[ObiJuanKenobi]

Mine is the left, DPs is the right.
Who is BU?

The e at the end isn't silent

It is in Yorkshire ... maybe a few would use it, but not usually

YOU'RE ALL WRONG

DP. And there should be butter underneath the jam.

Trust me, I'm an expert on eating scones. Oh, and it's scown too, before anyone comes in and is wrong on that one as well.

Jam, then cream.

Butter, jam, cream or your ratios are all wrong.
Another vote for blackcurrant rather than strawberry.
Butter, treacle, cream for thunder and lightning (although this combo is equally acceptable on thickly sliced, crusty, white bread).

cream first then jam. cream replaces butter.

Butter and cream? Revolting!

Cream in lieu of butter, the jam drizzled on top. Yum.

I have a sudden urge to have Scones!!!!

1st pref: Scone, Jam, Cream,
2nd pref: Scone, Cream, Jam,
3rd pref: Scone, Nutella, Cream,

Actually they are all my first pref. Damn you OP I'm salivating!!!

You are right.

However, both of you could be doing with more cream.

In Australia, it's always scone, then jam, then cream.

So, I guess Cornwall wins on the international front.

Left is correct - how are you even supposed to spread cream onto jam? Surely it just blobs and pushes the jam around?

i think jam first makes more sense because you can spread it on the scone, nbut once the cream goes on you're trying to spread onto a moving lump?

Butter, treacle, cream for thunder and lightning (although this combo is equally acceptable on thickly sliced, crusty, white bread).

God, I want this now. (On bread, not a scone.)

In Australia they use squirty cream, which is a crime unto itself!

savvy :O

..... :O

Your DP is right, jam first. I really want a scone now!

I think jam looks prettier on the top but then you don’t taste it on the scone plus you can’t pile on the cream (the whole point imo). Your dp is correct.

Cream then jam usually but when put side by side both look delish!

We didn't share just one We shared 4!

I tried DPs and it was nicer so I'll admit defeat here, just don't tell him. Much creamier

Has anyone else now made plans to bake scones in the next few days?
Just adding Rhoda's to the Tesco list...

Dunno. Both look alright.

Butter, jam and then cream.

Scone, butter, jam, cream. Obviously.
