Proper Cream Tea Country

Cornwall wrote the book on cream teas — jam first, obviously. But a proper afternoon tea goes beyond scones and clotted cream. It's finger sandwiches with real fillings, homemade cakes and pastries, fresh fruit, and a spread that looks as good as it tastes. Whether it's a baby shower, a hen party, a milestone birthday, or a retirement celebration, afternoon tea catering brings a touch of class without the stuffiness.

Salt Wind Catering delivers afternoon tea across Cornwall — to your home, your venue, your garden, wherever you're hosting. Everything freshly prepared in our kitchen at 37 Fore Street, Redruth.

Catered for our wedding and would highly recommend. Amazing service and really good pricing considering the amount and quality of the food. We catered for 40 guests and there was still way more than enough.

I recently booked Salt Wind Catering for one of our corporate events and I can honestly say they exceeded expectations in every area. From the initial enquiry through to the event itself, the communication was excellent.

Got Questions?

What is included in a Salt Wind afternoon tea?

Freshly made finger sandwiches, homemade scones with Cornish clotted cream and jam, a selection of cakes, tarts and sweet treats, and savoury bites. Dietary requirements catered for as standard.

What events suit afternoon tea catering?

Baby showers, christenings, hen parties, milestone birthdays, retirement celebrations, bridal showers, garden parties, corporate events, and funeral wakes.

Can afternoon tea be combined with other catering?

Yes. Works brilliantly as an arrival treat before a buffet or hog roast, a late-afternoon follow-up to a wedding breakfast, or as the main event for an intimate gathering.

What is the difference between a cream tea and a full afternoon tea?

A cream tea is scones, Cornish clotted cream, and jam. A full afternoon tea adds finger sandwiches, mini cakes, pastries, and savoury bites — a more substantial spread that works as a light meal.

Can you deliver afternoon tea across Cornwall?

Yes. Homes, village halls, hotels, gardens, and venues across Cornwall and into Devon. We can set up for you or just deliver.

Do you offer gluten-free and vegan afternoon tea?

Yes. Gluten-free scones, vegan sandwiches, nut-free cakes, and dairy-free cream alternatives as standard. Let us know your requirements when booking.
