A Taste of Cornwall, handmade in Thailand.
We make authentic Cornish scones, freshly baked using traditional recipes and simple ingredients. A classic British favourite, now ready to enjoy in Thailand with our own strawberry jam and clotted cream…
Who We Are
Welcome to Jones Scones. We are Andrew and Rin—a husband-and-wife team dedicated to bringing the authentic tradition of Cornish cream tea straight from the UK to Pathum Thani and Bangkok.
What started as a single batch baked for a local community market quickly grew into a passion-driven bakery. Today, every scone we serve is baked fresh to order using simple, high-quality ingredients, traditional techniques, and small-batch care.
The Cornish Tradition
Cornwall is a beautiful coastal county located in the southwest of England, famous for its countryside, dramatic ocean views, and rich culinary history. To help understand the terms: Cornwall is the place itself, while Cornish refers to anything originating from Cornwall—including its language, culture, and iconic food traditions.
The Cornish scone, historically rooted in the traditional yeast-leavened “Cornish Split,” is defined by its simple, buttery recipe and soft, tender texture. Unlike a standard crisp biscuit, a proper Cornish scone is baked until lightly golden on the outside while remaining delicate and cake-like on the inside, allowing it to be easily pulled apart by hand rather than cut with a knife. Served fresh and warm straight from the oven, its mild sweetness and rich dough serve as the ultimate structural base designed specifically to elevate the entire afternoon tea experience.
Why Jam First?
In Cornwall, enjoying a scone is a centuries-old ritual defined by one crucial rule: jam first, then cream.
Spreading a rich layer of fruit jam directly onto a warm scone creates a sweet foundation that locks in moisture. The thick cream is then spooned generously on top, preventing it from melting too quickly into the warm bread. It is not just tradition—it is the secret to balancing flavor and texture in every single bite.
Our Clotted Cream Alternative
Authentic Cornish clotted cream is famously rich, silky, and thick. To recreate this luxury experience locally, we developed our own custom technique using a blend of high-quality cooking cream and rich unsalted butter.
By gently simmering the mixture low and slow on the stove top for 50 minutes until thick, we replicate the rich consistency of the traditional process. The result is an exceptionally rich, silky cream that offers a similar taste, body, and indulgent texture of traditional British clotted cream. While we are proud of our homemade signature cream, we are continually working toward producing authentic, traditional Cornish clotted cream right here in Thailand in the near future.
