Another thing to consider is if spreading the jam and cream, won't there be cross-jar contamination between the two? Teaspoon in the jam jar, spoon/knife for the cream.
No mate. Spoon the Cream on 4 sections of scone (yes scone) first and then with the back of a teaspoon spread.Then dollop the Jam on with 2nd spoon. They will be telling me next that it is known as a Cornish Cream Tea. Frigging idiots.
Definitely scone. Only very posh people would pronounce it scone.
Mrs NSB says cream before jam but she is wrong. After the buttering a cake comment she quoted Victoria sponge so I found some images to show her its jam before cream on that too. Unfortunately 2 of the first 3 pictures of them on the internet are wrong as well!

The Cornish are pirates and cannot be trusted. Your Wife is right. (as all wives are).
Personally I never put the top back on but put jam and cream on that separately
The scone should be horizontally cut into 2 and then the Cream added with the Jam on top. Never topped. The Cornish nicked it off the Devon folk and turned it on its head. They should have stuck with the Pasty.
Butter on fruitcake is good but cheese on fruit cake is the best. Wensleydale or a good cheddar ideally.
Never tried it on a fruitcake, my old fruit (cake), but I shall now do so! Same thing with cheese applies to apple pies too. Was that on Twin Peaks, or am I imagining that?

Assumption is to make an ass out of you and me.
Those who assume they know you, when they don't are just guessing.
Those who assume and insist they know are daft and in denial.
Those who assume, insist, and deny the truth are plain stupid.
Those who assume, insist, deny the truth and tell YOU they know you (when they don't) have an IQ in the range of 35-49.

I’ve never thought to put cheese on an apple pie but I’m not sure why not. After all, I am someone who has dunked a custard cream in marmite in the name of science.

It’s very simple. If you butter your scone, then it’s butter, jam, cream. If you’re a heathen and don’t use butter then it’s cream then jam. Of course the cream is clotted, not any of that fluffy white nonsense
It's 106 miles to Portman Road, we've got a full tank of gas, half a round of Port Salut, it's dark... and we're wearing blue tinted sunglasses.

If I butter my scone it doesn't need jam nor cream.
If I am putting cream on my scone it needs to be on top of the jam.
