Hazelnut honey clotted cream Calories

Eat hazelnut honey clotted cream spread on bread or toast, or serve a small spoonful alongside a plain pastry. Its honey and hazelnut flavour is already pronounced, so it usually needs no extra sweetener.

Hazelnut honey clotted cream has honey and hazelnut added to the dairy cream, while plain clotted cream is served without those additions. The flavoured version is sweeter and nuttier, so it works more like a ready-to-eat sweet spread.

Make hazelnut honey clotted cream by gently mixing honey and finely chopped or ground hazelnuts into plain clotted cream. Add the hazelnuts just before serving if you want them to retain some crunch.

Yes, hazelnut honey clotted cream should be kept refrigerated in a sealed container. Use a clean spoon when serving, and follow the package’s storage instructions and use-by date, especially after opening.

Hazelnut honey clotted cream goes well with toast, plain scones, pancakes, or fresh fruit. Choose a relatively plain accompaniment so the honey and hazelnut flavours remain noticeable rather than competing with another strongly flavoured topping.

Freezing hazelnut honey clotted cream is not ideal because thawing can make the dairy texture grainy or cause it to separate. Refrigerate it instead and enjoy it while it is fresh.

Yes, hazelnut honey clotted cream can be used as a filling or topping for simple desserts and pastries. Because it is already sweet, taste the dessert before adding more sugar, and add it after baking when a creamy texture is wanted.

Hazelnut honey clotted cream is inspired by kaymak, a traditional dairy food enjoyed in Turkey, often with honey at breakfast. Adding hazelnut gives this version a nutty variation on the familiar honey-and-kaymak pairing.

People with diabetes can include hazelnut honey clotted cream only if it fits their individual carbohydrate plan; the honey contributes sugars even though the spread is dairy-based. A clinician or dietitian can advise on portioning alongside diabetes medicines.
