No.....unless you're Cornish....in which case you're definitely a wrong un!

It's a DEVON cream tea.....and in Devon it's always clotted cream first....think of it like the 'butter'....then jam on top

Embarrassingly, when I was on holiday on the IOW years ago staying with some friends, I saw a sign saying "cream teas here" and I thought it was tea with cream in instead of milk, and I commented how I didn't mind it in coffee but it would be horrible in tea.

They both fell about laughing that I thought a cream tea was tea with cream in it!

But if you do jam first, the cream then slithers about and drops off (on the table, down your clothes). The Devon way makes this less likely because the slippery cream is kind of anchored to the crumb of the scone

I had a similar misunderstanding with “blow jobs” as a young un .. assumed it was literal and you’d end up inflated like a balloon

How on earth do you spread lumpy thick jam on soft cream.

Only with the crust intact

At room temps minus crust, it's just thickish yellow cream incapable of supporting jam.

Take it from a cremeologist.

Well, just to be safe, henceforth I shall have one half of my scone with the jam on the bottom and the other half with the cream on top.

I lived in Devon for six months, but I would still say jam first.

Although, I prefer it without the cream at all - I'm not a fan of clotted cream.

I eat it like that because I put butter on also. So butter, jam then cream. If I don’t have butter then I have cream then jam.

Cornish is not the original way, they have pasties not cream teas.

Butter as well? Nah that’s SO wrong!!

There’s an excellent pasty shop down yonder very near the border that sells both Cornish and Devonshire pasties, both are equally palatable but the styles are different!

As an honorary Cornishman (parents have been there for years and years) then of course I have to err on the side of the Cornish!

Poochiepoo!! Call yourself a Devonian!

Much like the jam or cream first debate, there’s a Cornwall v Devon pasty crimp debate!!

Some say that a Cornish pasty is oval in shape and crimped along the side, whereas a Devon pasty has a top crimp and tends to be oval in shape! So much so that Cornish bakers using the top crimp can’t legally call their pasties Cornish! (even though there is evidence the top crimp did originate in Cornwall!)

I’ve only ever had a top crimped pasty once and it wasn’t the same. I prefer the ‘miner’ style pasty, half savoury/half sweet and eaten with filthy mitts.

Exactly this..from a logistics point of view it has to be cream on jam, not jam on cream. Jam being heavier and more dense than cream it would just sink in and not smooooosh around as required.

Why did the inventors of the cream tea (devonians) create it like that then? Jam sits perfectly well on top of cream.

They’ve always been a little bit odd those Devonians! It doesn’t surprise me at all that they’d invent something the wrong way, thankfully the Cornish were there to put it right!
