Google Doodle Celebrating Scones; Details – Today’s Doodle is celebrating scones, an afternoon tea treat in the United Kingdom. scones are enjoyed with jam and clotted cream and can be found in almost any bakery from the northern tip of Scotland to the southern end of England.
Some say that scones originated in Scotland in the 1500s and eventually found their way into ‘royal tearooms’. It is also said that Anna Russell, the 7th Duchess of Bedford, requested the snack with her tea every afternoon and popularised the combo.
