IT’S A tradition that is 360 years old this year according to the Cream Tea Society … but the question of jam or cream first still has to be settled decisively.
A Wokingham-based garden centre is hoping you’ll visit at least twice to see which way you prefer.
Squires Garden Centre on Heathlands Road has added a cream tea to its menu, ready for the summer. And there’s a bonus. Every British Cream Tea comes with the plain or fruit scone, plus jam and cream as you’d expect. It also comes with a strawberry tart, as a bit on the side.
The Cornish way is jam then cream, while the Devon way is cream then jam.
What’s the Wokingham way?
The cream tea is available in its cafe bar, seven days a week. Tables can also be booked, and friendly arguments over the order can no doubt be had with your dining companion.
