The whipped cream was stiff and difficult to mix the powdered sugar and sour cream into with a whisk. Next time I will see if a fork works better.

This is “Faux” Clotted Cream. Recipe clearly states it’s an alternative. I have never had the “Real” thing but I loved this. I used MASCARPONE Cheese instead of Sour Cream and it gave it a light tangy smooth taste.
Jared Zamora
So easy and good with my scones
Fernando Patton
I made this as instructed and found it delicious on homemade scones and Thanksgiving apple pie. Having a less sweet topping is perfect for pie.

This tasted nothing like the clotted cream I had in a tea shop. What I had was sweet and thick cream. Only thing I can compare it to. I added 5-6 tablespoons of powder sugar. All I could taste was the sour cream. I think it took over the taste of other ingredients. I wouldn’t make this version again.

Recipes don’t get much easier! I have never had traditional clotted cream, but I can’t imagine it’s any better than this. Sweet, a little tangy from the sour cream, and absolutely perfect with raspberry jam on a warm scone!

Fine substitute for clotted ceam; I doubled the recipe and used 8 oz of Mascarpone + 8 oz creme fraise (which is more like sour cream, and I scrimped a bit on the the shugar — might have taken the bite off the sour cream flavors but overall, a good alternative when you can’t get a hold of the real thing; Fast & easy to make, too! can’t complain!

First of all, a lot of the reviews on this seem incredibly harsh. I have had many types of “real” clotted cream and Devonshire (which is not exactly the same as clotted cream), and no it isn’t exactly the same thing. However, at least where I live, it is close to impossible to obtain true forms of either, although if you are in my situation, you can pay quite a pretty penny to order it thru Amazon. Moving on, no this isn’t true clotted cream, but that being said, in my humble opinion, I found this to be delicious on scones with preserves, and while sweeter, it is closer to a Devonshire cream, without having to go through the process of double boilers, seperating, etc. I am appreciative of the contributed recipe.

Really good.
Travis Myers
It was delicious and went well with my scones and jam. Was a little less thick than real clotted cream, but still very tasty. Considering this only takes about 10mins to whip up vs the 20hrs real clotted cream takes, it’s fantastic and I’ll deffinitely make it again.

Easy & Delicious! Next best thing until I’m back in London again
Mark Flowers
It was perfect. I whipped the whipping cream then added the other ingredients. My teenage kids loved it. No consistency problems at all.

Absolutely delicious

I’ve made this twice now for tea parties and we have all enjoyed it. Easy with dependable results each time.

This is NOT clotted cream. It’s whipped cream with less sugar and some sour cream to add a tang. It’s very good, but is nowhere close to real clotted cream. I’ve made it several times and prefer it with less sugar (I usually use 1-2 tsp instead).
Kristina Simpson
Easy and tasty recipe. Will definitely make again… YUMMY
Katherine Avila
I did not make any changes. And yes I would make it again. It was yummy and very appropriate for my tea party. I might add slightly more sugar next time.
Daniel Callahan
I love the flavor and texture of this easy clotted cream, just the right amount of sweetness, and so yummy on scones!
Lisa Walker
So good. I lived in Chiangmai, Thailand , so it is hard to find commercial clotted cream. The method to make is also easy. I made it for Parent Coffee morning , got a lot of compliments!
Sara Hill
I think this is what is also called cream fraiche. Delicious!
