  Cream tea - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Cream tea composed of scones, clotted cream and strawberry jam
A cream tea or Devonshire tea is tea taken with a combination of scones, clotted cream, and jam.
The name "Devonshire tea", used in Australia, comes from the county of Devon in England, where it is a local speciality, although it is disputed that this type of tea is original to Devon.

 Clotted cream - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Clotted cream is a thick yellow cream made by heating and then leaving unpasteurized cow's milk in shallow pans for several hours; it is very similar to the Indian Malai.
A reasonable facsimile may be made by combining two parts whole milk with one part whipping (heavy) cream, heating at the very lowest possible heat for a couple of hours until a skin forms, leaving it undisturbed overnight, and then harvesting the skin and its underclots—one may do whatever one likes with the remaining milk.
Clotted cream is generally served as a cream tea (also known as a Devonshire Tea) on (warm) buttered scones with strawberry or raspberry jam, although many people frown upon the indulgent use of butter and cream.

This was followed in the mid 19th century by the invention of the ice cream soda, then the ice cream sundae later in the century to placate religious conservatives, and both the ice cream cone and banana split in the first years of the 20th century.
Around the turn of the 20th century, the ice cream soda was probably the single most popular teen delicacy in America, so much so that religious conservatives considered it sinful and subversive, giving rise to actual legal prohibition of the stuff on holy days, which probably influenced the creation of the modern ice cream sundae.

 Afternoon (NOT High!) Tea
Tea is an aromatic beverage prepared by infusion with boiling water of the leaves of an eastern Asian evergreen shrub or small tree (Camellia sinensis) having fragrant, nodding, cup-shaped white flowers and glossy leaves.
Tea makers call this process "fermentation," although, technically, it is "oxidation." A similar process occurs when the flesh of a cut apple turns brown.
The climate and terrain in the area where tea shrubs are grown have a considerable effect on the flavor of the harvest, so regions of origin are often a part of a tea's name.

 Cream Teas
A cream tea cannot be considered as such unless there is cream and the type of cream that should be used is clotted cream.
Originally, clotted cream was only produced in the Westcountry - this is where the rich soil, mild climate and the right breed of cattle came together to create milk with a high enough cream content to produce clotted cream.
Today however, the cream is extracted by a separator which extracts the cream as it is pumped from the dairy to the holding tank.

The most famous of all is 'Clotted Cream' which achieves its thick clotted texture by heating cream of high-fat breed cows, such as the Jersey type, in pans, traditionally made of copper but latterly stainless steel, to about 190°f and allowing it to cool slowly.
In the farmhouses, the pans were heated crudely over a fire or stove and the cream was rich in acid and aroma-producing bacteria.
The cream is usually packed in shallow trays a few inches deep and forms a yellow crusty surface.

 Green Tea ice cream - MomZone.com Forums
Linds loves green tea and I would love to make this for her but she does not eat dairy of any kind.
For cream based soups and desserts (especially flan, pudding, custard), you might want to try whole or possibly lowfat soy milk, as nonfat will not provide the desired consistency (it cannot bind as well as whole fat soy milk).
So I suppose in place of the 2 cups of heavy cream I would heat full fat soy milk until it thickened a bit and then just use regluar, low fat soy milk in place of the half and half.
