Well, darling, "Pass the jam" is a delightful little phrase typically used when someone wants the jam to be passed to them at the breakfast table. It's a polite way of requesting that sweet, fruity goodness to spread on your toast or scone. So next time someone says it, just be a peach and hand over the darn jam!
If you put too much sugar on scones, they can become overly sweet, overpowering the scone's natural flavors and the taste of any accompanying toppings like clotted cream or jam. Excess sugar can also affect the texture, making the scones sticky or grainy. Additionally, an excessive amount of sugar can lead to caramelization during baking, potentially causing burnt edges. Balancing sweetness is key to enjoying the scone's rich, buttery taste.
