Devon Cream Company Clotted Cream, 6 oz

It’s a wonderful spread for toast. I forgot how much I liked this product. Just dairy cream, no additives and any sugar. Love it on my Welsh Cakes with a pot of breakfast tea. Waiting for some crumpets to arrive, wish I had some Scones from anywhere but Walmart.

Beware. The seller sent me a well packaged yet open and lip bashed bottle. The safety button is up. Thus could not have been missed. The smell is overwhelming. This was so smelly it was absolutely not something that could have been missed. The wrapping is dry but the bottle has a dried sticky residue on it. It smells like rotten milk so strongly. I can’t believe Amazon won’t even help. Please beware of “non returnable items” there is no refund, no exchange. If you get burned, tough beans. I willingly paid $10.00 for a $4.00 product because I had a reconstructive ankle surgery and can’t drive to the store 3 miles away. I thought I’d surprise my wife with a nice breakfast item and now I’m stuck in a house with a vile smell. I learned a lesson today. I’m beyond mad.

I went to Cornwall and had their clotted cream. When I came home, I realized how difficult it would be to make considering all the recipes called for unpasteurized milk. So I found this and the reviews were not great, but I took a chance.It was fantastic! It tasted delicious. It definitely was not as airy and whipped as the one I had eaten in England, but it still had that wonderful taste, perfect for scones, toast, and any treat that could use some creamy sweetness. I decided to put it in the freezer so that I didn't waste it, and it was still a delicious spread. I'll definitely be buying again.

Smelled really bad when opened. The closest I can describe it was like smelling a manure pile. Didn’t even try to taste it, just tossed it in the trash.

Fresh and creamy…perfect for scones or any delicious desserts. Brings back memories from my childhood

So good on scones with preserves. I had this at the holiday and my family nearly devoured the whole jar in one sitting. Absolutely worth re purchasing.

If only there was a common sense meter on Amazon!Buy FRESH. Keep in fridge. Serve at room temp. Store in fridge. Perishable after opening. Perishable BEFORE opening, but only if not stored in cool temps. Per Devon is has a 19 day CHILLED shelf life when unopened. That is not forever, that is about 3 weeks. That is still chilled!Shelf stable cream with no preservatives yet the label says "keep refrigerated"?!?! This reviewer who says it's shelf stable - WHAT shelf?!?!This product is nothing but CREAM. See my photos of the Whole Foods product delivered fresh via Prime when I binged on this UK crack (aka clotted cream, double cream, extra double cream, give-it-to-me-now-whatever-your-name-is-today-cream and needed a reup). Fellow Americans, this is slow-baked British heavy cream, cooled, with the whey drained off. Plain and simple. No additives. No sweeteners. As it should be. Nothing like it here. Used like a butter condiment over there. Clotted cream is 55% buttercream. Double cream is 45%. It is decadent, thick beige-y dream in your mouth and yes, it might be a wee bit spotted with yellow or orange. (wee, not WEE.) That's natural. Stir it a bit with the whey liquid that's in it and it's all good. Do not pass on it. You will regret it. Americans are well-trained for the look of perfection with sweeteners, additives, dyes, and all that mess. I warn you to FORGET THAT lest you miss out on oral ecstasy. Or hey, leave it for the rest of us. We will take your cast offs.If the bottle comes to you and smells spoilt then guess what? Use your common sense. Better yet, use it before buying. OKAY?!?! In the UK, this is sold in the dairy case or other very cool place. Now, I've spent lots of time in the UK. There are many cool places that aren't officially refrigerated. No need to be refrigerated that far north. It's a natural cooler 24/7.When I came back from a long stay in the UK, I needed a cream fix. I searched every nook and cranny in Denver. I needed this drug. I was desperate. I found it in, of all places, the dairy aisle at Whole Foods. How freakin main stream! Now, this ain't a cheap habit nor am I on the Keto Diet. My butt prefers to stay fit so I try to maintain only, no binging. But New Years Eve, c'mon, it's special. What can I say? I blew the whole stash and had to true up. Hah! Prime reupped me in 2 hrs. That's tight. Supa tight. No really. I needed it quickly, Prime delivered. Perfect. I saw these reviews and it was like Twilight Zone. Why? What? Who? Brits? No way. Just sayin.The reviews had me goin. Did any of the buyers read reviews first? Did they even read the product name with Cream in it? They had to read it, but why did they buy it? How 'bout contents? Was it a purely random buy? Does a twentysomething know what cream is? Did their mama teach them what happens when milk stays out for a day? Two days? I have four kids, 16 - 25. Do my kids know? I asked to be sure. Yeah, uh huh. I asked. Even the 16 year old, the youngest, said "ewww". He then did his best gag face. So, what's up with these adults on Amazon?Even my KIDS know better than to leave a refrigerated dairy product out overnight for a day or two. What is the mail if it is not "out overnight"?!?! Is it just me that missed this gap in everyone's thinking? Why do adults think a refrigerated product will not spoil after two days in transit? It makes zero sense to me.Giant heads up: Buy clotted cream or double cream from a local British shop, Whole Foods (where I got mine and Prime delivered it in 2 hrs!! All this Brit opinion blah, blah... just get it. It's from Devon. Tastes identical.), or some other FRESH place. The ingredients: PASTEURISED CLOTTED CREAM.The only other way to be sure you get the good stuff is make it yourself. You cannot make it with ultra-pasteurized anything so unless you have your own cow or belong to a coop dairy farm, good luck. So, yeah, do not follow the silly advice to knock on a farmer's door and see if they'll sell to you unless you're into humiliation. It would be highly illegal for them to do it. It may be a ridiculous law in this country but so are many laws. It is still a very powerful law. Nuked milk sucks. Look up "coop dairies" and buy a share of a farm if you can. It's the only way to get raw milk. Or...ka-ching!This stuff is just as good as the creamy deliciousness served with scones in England and not so good as Scotland's extra double cream but I cannot have it all.Just don't buy it unless it's fresh, okay. It's cream. Treat it like cream. Someone said it's shelf stable. What shelf?!?! Read the label pictured. It goes in the fridge. As long as you don't open it you can keep it in the fridge for a long time, not your pantry!

I received my clotted cream completely spoiled. It was curdled and yellowing. This is definitely not a product you want to be out in the summer heat.
