Cream tea is a real English treat, consisting of scones, clotted cream, jam, tea, and (occasionally) bread and butter. Most tea shops offer cream tea on their menu, and it would be difficult to imagine a trip to the seaside without stopping for cream tea somewhere along the promenade.
It would also be difficult to imagine anything more satisfying than sitting down in a steamy tea room in the middle of winter and ordering a cream tea to restore the life to frozen limbs.
There is no reason why you can't enjoy a cream tea at home, provided that you have all of the necessary ingredients. You can find jam and clotted cream at most convenience stores, and scones are very easy to make. I usually find that guests enjoy two scones as part of a cream tea, although one scone is perfectly acceptable if you have provided a full afternoon tea with sandwiches and boiled eggs.
The recipe below will make about six large scones, and you should expect your guests to use about half a pound of jam and half a pound of clotted cream between them. If you are providing bread and butter, add a little more jam to your calculations.
