A cream tea or Devonshire tea is tea taken with a combination of scones, clotted cream, and strawberry jam. In the United States, it is promoted as a typically English and perhaps upper class meal. Cream tea is offered for sale in tea rooms throughout the Commonwealth, or wherever someone wants to give an impression of British influence. Within England it is a straightforward regional speciality, marketed to holidaymakers but widely eaten locally. Other items served at a cream tea may include cucumber or watercress sandwiches with the crusts cut off, various small cakes and mousses. Purists regard these items as excrescences, and avoid them. The name Devonshire tea, used in Australia, comes from the county of Devon in England, where it is a local speciality, although it is disputed that this type of meal is original to Devon. It is indeed served all over South West England, and in England is known just as a cream tea. |
