Madge’s Classic Scones

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, ready for Rodda’s Cornish Clotted Cream or a spoonful of Maison Perrotte strawberry jam. 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.

You may avail of the scones:

• Fresh (on next day delivery) - Available for Metro Manila clients only. Not ideal for long-haul deliveries as fresh scones are sensitive.
• Frozen ( Express delivery) - Available for all locations and most ideal for Nationwide clients. Frozen scones will last the long-haul travel.

If you are a nationwide client, kindly choose Frozen.

• Butter, Jam & Cream: Serve warm with Maison Perrotte Gariguette Strawberry Jam and Rodda’s clotted cream for a classic cream tea; add Échiré or Bordier butter if you prefer.
• 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: Brew Dammann Frères Breakfast Tea for a classic cup, or Four Fruits Rouges to echo the berry preserve.

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.

For your Fresh Scones:

Madge’s Scones are baked fresh on the morning of your scheduled delivery and sent out at peak softness — tender, crumbly, and golden-topped. They arrive at room temperature and are ready to serve or store.

• Refrigerate: Keep in their packing or transfer to an airtight container. Best enjoyed within 2–3 days from the date of arrival.
• Freeze: If not enjoying right away, place them in the freezer as soon as possible. They’re suitable for freezing for up to 2 months, but we recommend freezing within 24 hours of arrival to lock in their delicate texture.

To serve, you may enjoy them as-is or warm gently in the oven or toaster oven for 5–7 minutes at 160°C (320°F) to bring back their just-baked charm. Best served with butter, jam, clotted cream — or all of the above.

For your Frozen Scones:

Madge’s Scones are frozen on the same day they’re baked to preserve their freshly-baked goodness. Here’s how to bring them back to life:

• Oven Method (Recommended): Preheat your oven to 160°C (320°F). Place frozen scones on a baking tray and heat for 10–12 minutes until warm and lightly crisp on the outside. Let cool slightly before serving.
• Toaster Oven Method: Place a frozen scone on a tray or foil and heat at 160°C (320°F) for 8–10 minutes.
• Microwave Method: Wrap a single frozen scone in a paper towel and microwave on medium for 30–45 seconds. Note: This softens the scone but won’t give a crisp top. You may finish with a quick toast if desired.
• Room Temperature Thaw (Cold Option): Some people like their scones cold. To achieve this, thaw overnight in the fridge. Once thawed, they’re ready to eat. For best texture, thaw uncovered or loosely wrapped to avoid moisture buildup.
