The Game of Scones

2 Comments

While the Battle of the Cream is still raging in the poll we posted yesterday, we have a new issue which is troubling our readership. Plain scones or fruit, that’s the new question. So let the Game of Scones begin.

Thank you to Periwinkle Cottage Tearoom in Selworthy for coming up with the brilliant #GameOfScones – so here are two of their photos to help you make up your mind. You could, of course, pop over to Selworthy now and actually try both their plain and fruit scones. They are open till five!

Jam and Cream? Or Cream and Jam?

This weekend the 2017 Afternoon Tea Week comes to an end.  Time to ask the question yet again: Do you put jam first on your scones or do you prefer it the other way round?

Let’s find out in this fun poll:
