OK, here's a question.

What, exactly, is "whipped cream" as defined by you tea-and-scones people?

Here in the US, it's heavy cream that has been whipped/beaten until very light and fluffy. Sometimes sugar is added to sweeten it, which is what I prefer. You can buy whipped cream in spray containers or you can buy Cool-Whip which isn't real whipped cream but is really, really good when spooned on to pumpkin pie. Yum!

I have no idea what clotted cream is. Sounds...like curdled milk to me. I'm sure it isn't.

Wendy - have you discovered those Canadian pastries, the butter pie? My husband loves those. Also, another Canadian dish called "pasties" always give me a big giggle. Here in the US, "pasties" (pronounced paysteez) are tiny discs a promiscous woman would "paste" on to certain parts of her anatomy. Usually they involve some sort of tassle <g>.
