I don't know if this is what true Devonshire Cream tastes like but this is great with scones.

Oh, so good. Did tweak a bit - a little more sugar and vanilla. Did not whip up firm despite useing stand mixer, but still great, and fantastic topping for the fresh fruit salad. I learned that after chilling the leftovers, the consistentcy was awsome.

Another way is to use equal parts of cream cheese, heavy whipping cream and sour cream and it makes a wonderful Devonshire Cream also. Just whip it in your Kitchen-Aid for 5 minutes.

Simply delicious and so very easy to make! I find it interesting that those who didn't rate the recipe very well either didn't even try it or did give it a go, but still complained that it isn't exactly like real Devonshire cream and clotted cream. That's nitpicking and it's not rating the taste of this recipe. I would ask that each of you simply try the recipe and rate it on it's own merits whether it's 'exactly' like the real deal or not. This recipe is meant to be an easy, delicious substitution, not an exact replica.

It sounds rather nice and I shall make it. BUT it is not Devonshire Cream. To have the real thing. Milk with a good cream content is left so that the cream rises to the top and is then scalded. The taste is unique.

I submitted this recipe after a friend and I experienced our first Tea while in Victoria, BC some years ago. We watched the others in the Tea house as they split their scone, spread the Devonshire Cream on then topped it with fresh strawberry preserves. I fell in love with this wonderful treat and came home and did my best to duplicate. This "cream" began a yearly tradition of having a Tea with mothers, daughters, granddaughters and friends. So much fun and so many memories made. Enjoy!

If a) You don't like cream cheese or b) You like super sweet whipping cream, this is NOT your recipe. I frequently make Grandma Johnson's scones (this site) and this cream is pure heaven. I made it EXACTLY as the recipe is written and I thought it was not too sweet and PERFECT. ALL my guests raved about the flavor and the word "heaven" was frequently employed as a description. Not exactly like clotted cream, but wonderful all the same. Thank you for a great recipe!
