Scone or scon(e) and where are you from?

[FlatteredFool]

Scone to rhyme with cone. It's got a magic e making the o elongated. I'm in the North West with Yorkshire, Lincolnshire, Lancashire, Cheshire, and Irish roots.

I don't eat mine with cream. Clotted cream just sounds like some kind of STI affliction. Blood clots, cream shouldn't. However, if I did eat any kind of cream then the cream would go on first in place of butter. How do you eat yours?

And lastly, what is the best flavour scone? Mine is cherry followed by sultana but I've not experimented beyond that.

Let the bun scone fight begin!

Scone to rhyme with phone. Oi am from Baaaarkshoire.

From Essex. Now live in North Yorkshire.

Scone to rhyme with cone.

Butter, jam, little bit of clotted cream on top.

From Yorkshire. Scon as in gone for me.

I call it a Sconey scon(e)
Just so nobody corrects me.

Oh, I am from Birmingham

I say scone as in gone. Originally from Manchester but now in the south west.

Scone definitely rhymes with gone. I'm from Glasgow.

I don't have any particular preference when it comes to cream or jam first.

Treacle or ginger are the best scones though plain is good too. Blueberry can be nice but fruit scones are evil and don't get me started on the abomination that is cheese scones.

Scone to rhyme with cone. Berkshire. Cheese

Devon here - scone as in cone and cream then jam, the proper way

Scone - similar to stone

London 🇬🇧

Scon

Scon.Manchester.

Scone to rhyme with gone, jam first, cream on top. South East.

Rhyming with gone, here in Fife. Just to confuse things more, does everyone else pronounce the scone as in Scone Palace to rhyme with spoon?

Scone to rhyme with cone. Essex, but the nice bit 😂 cream then jam

Rhymes with stone for me. Jam first and then clotted cream (I conducted a scientific experiment.)

Scone the place rhymes with spoon.

I mainly say scone to rhyme with cone. Though I sometimes forget myself. Always jam first. I'm from London.

Dublin here,scone rhymes with cone here.

Scon to rhyme with gone. I'm in SW London (for the past 15+ years) but grew up in Leicestershire.

Cream before jam for me, unless the cream's a bit runny, then they swap.

Sultana's my fave flavour, although I'd always choose plain over that. Cheese is up there too, but that's a very different vibe!

London here...scone for me, would never say scon. Cream first because I don't like putting the red jammy knife into the white cream!

But you'd put cream into the jam? Surely use a separate knife/spoon!

Yorkshire - has always been scone to rhyme with gone for me

HAS to be jam first.

Toasting I've never heard of but seems exceptionally deviant to me!

Scone to rhyme with gone, because once it's on my plate, it's gone! ('S con!)

I’m from the north west and say Scon (like gone) but live in the south west now and noticed most people here say Scone (like cone)

Either way, you are clearly ridiculous for choosing butter over lovely clotted cream.

The scone I had earlier is now gone.

It was toasted with butter. No jam as I don't like it but DH added some to his scone which rhymes with bone.
I'm from NI, waves @LazyMareofEastown and DH is from Dublin where we now live and saying or ordering a scone puts me all in a tizzy depending on who I am speaking to!!!!!!
