Neither, butter or butter and jam you highfalutin shite!
Ps if I was to ruin a scone like ye have it would be the right.
Neither, cream is just to annoy moustaches and tempt cats.
But putting jam down as a a base without butter is sinful.
Definitely right, the jam is not optional and needs to be spread everywhere whereas the cream is
I see no butter therefore you’re both wrong.
Fuck off brit
Cream on scones is a no, sorry. It’s 100% a weird Brit thing that infiltrated Ireland. Scones are more like bread than cake. Imagine putting cream on bread.
Right
Jam first, so says my Cornish gf.
Left you gowl
Right is right
Neither, this is perverted
All right, all night.
How to ruin a scone.
This is a very English problem.
I would be perfectly happy with either. Or both, to be perfectly honest.
Butter and jam. Thanks
What is Left even, poached eggs!, c’mon Right Side all day long!
Right
Right, but it’s still not right without butter
Neither.
They should be like a sandwich with only Kerrygold butter (the right amount and right temperature) as the filling.
But if you want jam then let it be jam alone.
Right
This looks like whipped cream to me, in which case the answer is always always the right picture. The whole jam-cream debate in the UK (which is stupid to begin with, there I said it) never made sense to me because I didn’t understand how you could spread the jam on top of whipped cream, so how could anyone put the cream first.
The answer is they use clotted cream, which is much much thicker and more spreadable than whipped cream, so it works. I’ve only ever seen whipped cream used in NI (where I’m from, and I assume same is true of the Republic given this photo) where the only right answer if you want proportionate amounts of jam and cream on each bite is to put the jam first.

Right assuming those are plain scones and not ones with sultanas.
This is a west-brit scone, there’s no need for cream.
More importantly, do you pronounce it scone or scone?
Has anyone ever microwaved there scones before? Throw it in the microwave for 30 seconds on a high heat and it softens and heats it up, throw on butter and jam then after
I only like to smell scones not actually eat them.
Strawberries and cream in a bowl 😍
> Left or Right?
Yes.
Right but would smash both into my gob.
Right obviously
Both ways are good. Doesn’t matter a jot.
Take one each from both 🙂
This is a human rights violation if I’ve ever seen one. Scones should only ever be married with clotted cream. Using whipped cream is an insult to the cow that produced.
