THE RODDA FAMILY

We've been making Clotted Cream for 130 Years

A Family Affair

growing since 1890

We’ve been making Cornish clotted cream for quite some time now. Since 1890 to be exact. It all started with our great, great grandmother, Eliza Jane Rodda and it’s been a family affair ever since.

Rodda's through the generations

“Hardly anybody had any Cornish cream, it wasn’t available in London. I remember coming home from school and my father said: ‘Crowsens have sent a cheque for £1,000 – send them all the cream you can!’ We only had, say, 20 cows, so Willie (my brother) had a motorbike with a sidecar and he was sent around the farms with these jars, asking the farmers if they’d fill them up. I tell you what did happen…they sent back and asked for more!”

Eric Rodda, 1916 – 2016
