Madge’s Classic Scones

Tasting notes of the Curator

These are scones the way they were meant to be: tender, golden, and freshly baked from a butter-laced dough. No fluff, no fanfare — just plain flour, butter, milk, a touch of sugar, baking powder, and salt. The result is a lightly crisp exterior with a soft, biscuit-like crumb inside — subtly sweet, delicately savory, and rich with the taste of good butter. They split open beautifully, waiting for a smear of jam or a dollop of clotted cream. There’s something grounding about these scones — their gentle texture and homey flavor feel like being handed a warm plate by someone who loves you. Best enjoyed warm with your favorite spread and a quiet cup of tea, Madge’s Classic Scones deliver comfort in every bite.

Pairings and Suggestions

• Butter, Jam & Cream: Serve warm with Échiré or Bordier butter, strawberry jam, and clotted cream for the full teatime experience.
• Savory Snack: Try with herbed cream cheese or smoked salmon and dill
• Sweet Simplicity: Drizzle with honey or pair with lemon curd and fresh fruit.
• Toasted the Next Day: Slice in half, toast lightly, and butter generously — a perfect breakfast or merienda moment.
• Pair with Tea: Ideal with Earl Grey, chamomile, or a bold breakfast blend.

Baked with Butter and Memory

There’s a quiet kind of joy in a well-made scone. Madge learned to make hers not from a recipe card, but from the repetition of love — flour dusted on aprons, butter rubbed in by hand, dough folded with care. These scones carry that same spirit. No yeast, no pretense — just a baking tin, a hot oven, and a sense of rhythm passed down through generations. And though she’s now known beyond her kitchen, Madge continues to bake each batch with the same intention: to feed people something warm, real, and memorable.
