Thanks for the info' kiwitrish, can you please give us more details - Company name, contact details, etc. Although I don't need to be eating clotted cream, after enjoying it during our visit to the UK, I'm really pleased to know that it is available locally for an occasional treat.TIA.:-))
Thanks for that kiwitrish - it's very likely that we will be in Leeston next weekend so it's looking like a visit to the Cafe is a 'must do' and maybe we'll come home with some clotted cream too.:-))

Will do kiwitrish, if we get there - we hope to be in Leeston for the weekend and will certainly check out the Cafe and its goodies if poss. but with other commitments it may be too full-on for us to do so this time however there's always another time.....and it's on the way to Ashburton where my Mum lives.Thanks again.:-))

Last time I was in Cornwall, I bought a book on "Clotted Cream".Just haven't yet got around to making it - yet.
Most of those people offeringcream teas in NZ should be prosecuted under the trades descriptions act...If it isn't clotted cream, it isn't a Devonshire/Cornish cream tea.You don't have butter on the scone (or Cornish split) either.
Thank you kiwitrish for that.
dreamers - I missed that aricle! Which section?Saturday's Herald?

Just clicked onto that page but I can't find an ingredients list. Some company used to sell clotted cream through the supermarkets. It got a write up in Cuisine and all. I got all excited and nearly bought some till I read the ingredients label. Sadly if that additive filled load of tripe were clotted cream then south eastern English farmers must have all been food technologists for centuries.
Now I am always wary. I'm xing my fingers and hoping this is the genuine article. Would you let us all know when it arrives?

Kemp Roberts used to manufacture it and distribute it around NZ, I dont know if they still do, they make the chocolate dipping sauces as well. its a little white pottle with gold foil lid. You used to be able to get it in the larger supermarkets as well

I am trying this out today and I will report tomorrow after it has had its time in the fridge.

I thought I read in a magazine lately that you just arent allowed to make and sell clotted cream in New Zealand? Something to do with pasteurisation? I could be wrong though.

No your right skydancing, I too ready something about why its no longer available. I like marscapone instead but adore clotted cream if its available.
Instructions on making your own..as near as you can get at least.

I emailed the place in post 1 and they emailed me the cost of their cream...180g pottle is $9.00 and their 500g pottle is $25.00...then postage on top of that..
