English Double Devon Cream (Pack of 2)

Great addition to any pastry; much better than Kool Whip!

Leaked and Rotten

I got this simply because I've been reading some British mysteries lately, set in a tea shop. They were always going on about the clotted cream. So I got curious. In this case, curiosity didn't kill the cat; it thrilled the cat. The closest thing to taste that I've every had to this was long ago with "heavy whipping cream". The texture reminds me a bit of whipped butter. That is, soft and easy to spread; unlike normal cold butter and not runny like warmer butter. Oh, and it does _not_ taste like butter to me (I use Kerry Gold Irish butter). I often use a bit of butter in my hot tea. This is even more wonderful. I haven't used it for much of anything else yet (received it yesterday). But it is wonder when mixed with a bit of British honey (not the U.S. stuff). I will agree with some that this is a bit pricey. However, excellence is worth the cost to me.

I ordered this product in hopes of baking with it, but was sorely disappointed when I received a foul smelling package that had leaked dairy product. One of the jars was half empty and crusted with brown rotten milk. Unfortunately I had to throw both jars away and am not even able to get a refund. I would like to say it was a fluke but after reading multiple similar reviews, I will not be trying again.

Heard about this cream and saw it on amazon. Ordered it. As usual very fast delivery. And before I could even get all the ideas together for this cream it was here. Just tasting it right out of the jar after mixing it because contents do seperate during shipping was ahhhh heavenly creamy full mouth feeling. If you love a good food experience and understand good food and fats are much better for you than low fat tasteless nonsense then this a must. Try it! A little goes a very long way.

We received this product upon opening one of the jars because we were making a Yule Log Cake. The cream has spoiled and smelled and tasted sour. The second jar seems fine.

Flavor was almost spot on but colour seemed too yellow to me. It came with a separation in the bottle. When shaken it came together. This product is best kept refridgerated but does not require it until opened. The lid came taped on and very well packaged however in the UK there is no plastic seal on the cap its a pop up top kind like US jelly or jam. I could see how that would put someone off but I assure you that is the way this is normally sold. A bit pricey. Ive seen this at an upscale grocer for $9 each.

My daughters and I have scones and coffee every Sunday morning, and no scone should be without English Double Devon Cream and jam. I have had trouble getting this in the US so being able to order several jars at a time on Amazon is great. They are packed well to prevent breakage. I highly recommend!!
