About

Dydh da (Hello) I'm Beth. Cornish blogger, recipe developer, mum to 3, wife of 1, and living in the worlds best place (Cornwall, obviously).

I chose to call my blog Jam & Clotted Cream to highlight my strong Cornish identity from the very beginning. As any Cornish person knows, nothing captures the essence of Cornwall quite like a traditional cream tea. Featuring jam first, as it should be, the name pays homage to this beloved local delicacy.

While "Jam & Clotted Cream" continues celebrating Cornish inspired recipes using local ingredients, in June 2020 I launched a second food blog called Effortless Foodie. This site focuses on easy, fuss-free family meals like 30 minute dinners, simple slow cooker recipes, and air fryer recipes - perfect for busy weeknights and school schedules.

Then in 2023, I started Cornish Compass as a travel guide dedicated to exploring everything this beautiful county has to offer visitors and locals alike. 

Across my three blogs, my goal is to share the flavours, sights and rich culture that make Cornwall so special.
