International Scone Week 2017
I am hosting International Scone Week 2017 which takes part from the 7th to the 13th of August. If you would like to know where this tradition started, please read this post from Celia. We had an amazing turn out in 2015 but only 8 recipes last year. I hope we can make it a bumper collection of awesome scones this year. There are so many varieties of scones one can bake. My friend Alex says they have to be sweet, served with jam and cream. The age old question of course is whether you put the jam on first. Or the cream on before the jam?
How to take part:
- Create and blog a scone recipe and post it during the time frame.
- Link back to this post in your blog post.
- Use the hashtag #ISW2017
It really is as simple as that. I will showcase all the recipes on my sidebar for the entire year.
Take a look to see how you can participate in #ISW2017 Share on XInspiration published on Lavender and Lime July 29:
- 2016 – International Scone Week 2016
- 2015 – Chenin Blanc Tasting With Perdeberg

- 2011 – Tuna Served With An Oriental Dressing
Splendid, Tandy. Can I do two? I have a plain scone and a cheese scone recipe. Great idea.
Looking forward to both your recipes Robbie.
Ooh I hope I remember to put up my scones for that week! 😀
I hope so too
I love scones but they are one thing (well one of many) things I have trouble with. We have famous pumpkin scones here in Australia but I really love date scones too.
Maybe it is time to try again.
I have never tried date scones – that sounds so good 🙂
I am in 🙂
Great to hear that Evelyne 🙂
I will particiate Tandy!
Thank you Cheri!
Bring on scone week! Such a cool concept. I love how it was just made up!
Me too Jem 🙂
I can’t believe it is suddenly august but I hope to participate – it has been too long since I made scones that I really need to make another batch soon.
Hope to see you with us this year 🙂

HI there. I am sharing my latest gluten free scone recipe which is amazingly good. It was posted a couple of days early as things were destined to be a little busy this week. You can find the link here : http://www.glutenfreealchemist.com/2017/08/best-ever-gluten-free-scones-with.html
Thank you so much for taking part!
Tandy, I’m going to enjoy looking at all the scone recipes – it’s international scone week *every* week at my house! I’ve posted three or four other scones on my blog, but this is my basic scone. http://www.delightfulrepast.com/2010/02/i-read-great-blog-other-day-meal.html Glad I bought 15 pounds of flour yesterday!
Will check out your scone recipe soon. Let me know if you try any of the ones from this years’ #ISW

Hi tandy
I made Avocado, rocket and brie scones for International Scone Week at http://gggiraffe.blogspot.com/2017/08/avocado-rocket-and-brie-scones-vegan.html – thanks again for inspiring so much scone fun and yum
Hi Johanna, thanks for taking part. Will pop in shortly to read your post 🙂
Hi Tandy–
Read about this on My Savory Spoon and it was the perfect excuse to do a new scone. What a fun tradition!
Thank you so much and can’t wait to see all the others!

Hi Inger, thank you so much for takinbg part. Will check in shortly to read your post 🙂
Didn’t make any scones for scone week but drooling through all the comments here, I’m pretty sure I’ve been living in a dark cupboard somewhere, scones sure have come of age. Delish!
I love scones and make them often. I have my two recipes for next year ready to go!
