National Cream Tea Day 2017

It’s Friday 30th June and it’s National Cream Tea Day

National Cream Tea Day celebrates a very British tradition of tea and scone. There is a long ‘ranging’ debate as to whether the clotted cream should be spread first then the jam or the jam first followed by cream. This debate has separated Devon and Cornwall for years!

From a design point of view, we offer the following:

  • If using clotted cream instead of butter, then it can be spread first with a small dollop of jam atop.
  • If you are using whipped cream then it always has to go on after the jam.

Our Extended Functional Flow Block Diagram (eFFBD) allows the user to choose the Devon or Cornwall route. Flexibility in a system’s functions is a crucial part of modelling. Now if you have that #FridayFeeling – go and enjoy a cream tea.
