Tilly’s Signature Fresh Clotted Cream
A Taste of Tradition in the Heart of America
Straight from the heart of England, no proper Afternoon Tea or scone would dare show its face without the crown jewel… clotted cream! It’s been described as boasting a rich, sweet flavor like heavy cream, coupled with a texture akin to butter. The big question? Did this majesty begin in Devon or Cornwall? The ancient tales point to Tavistock Abbey’s monks as early clotted cream maestros in the 14th century. Vikings came a-knocking in AD 997, but fear not, these monks rebuilt with a little help from their friends, dishing out bread, clotted cream, and strawberry preserves as a heartfelt thank you. And in the 1658 cookbook “The Compleat Cook,” they’ve got the secret to making “clouted cream.”
At Tilly’s, we tip our hat to tradition by handcrafting the real deal – authentic, homemade clotted cream. As the sole supplier of fresh clotted cream in the US, we pride ourselves on sourcing the best local ingredients, ensuring our cream is the bee’s knees.
