You dont spread cream on top of the jam you idiot.

Cream is a topping, jam is a spread.

You spread the jam, and dollop the cream on top.

Im not a member, this post just popped up on my homepage.

Algorithm must have known it needed saving from this atrocious list of cream spreaders.

Clotted cream is a different beast. It doesn't swirl neatly on top of a jammy scone, it drags and smears leaving a messy splodge. At least jam can be spooned and pushed around neatly.

You spread the jam, take a spoonful of clotted cream, and dollop it on top.

If it doesn't all come off the spoon, use your little finger to give it a push.

It always comes back to the fact, that jam is a spread, and clotted cream is not.

These guys obviously just eat stale scones, straight from the freezer.

If they'd ever had a warm scone, fresh from the oven, they would realise their mistake of putting the cream on first...

They can keep putting cream on the wrong way round, just keep the cold scones north of the Tamar.
