I'm trying, thatbags, but it's no use - it could be either!

Ooh yes! You can get that cream in Tesco's but they haven't had any in for ages...
But this talk of deliciousness (or otherwise, jnigs 
), is beside the POINT!
Doesn't anyone know what I mean be the edge of the coffee or the edge of the cream?
(PS I think jnigs suits you better; may stick with that)
Ice cream with chantilly cream. Yum! 
No, I don't think that's taking things too far at all, LizG. In fact, I'm planning to eat a fruit souffle with both cream and Ben&Jerry's cooki dough ice-cream some time this coming week. Just to test the flavour combo, natch!
Sadly, I don't think we can get real Cornish anything up here. Don't blame them for scoffing it all themselves.
Goodness it took me so long to type my message (busy drooling) that hundreds of replies beat me to it
Most definitely thatbags it is a treat, a desire, rich, a pick you (me) up, a moment(s) to dream. There is nothing quite like coffee with a very thick slick of cream on top and no need for the whisky underneath 
.
The only thing that comes anywhere close is a Cornish icecream with a dollop of clotted on top or is that perhaps taking matters too far?
Iced Ovaltine....? 
You wouldn't like Irish coffee then, jings. That's good. More for us
Coffee with cream is abhorrent. Why for goodness sake? Just drink ovaltine. 
Yes, I know that's a strange phrase. DH has his "I'll just humour her" look on too. The thing is, I decided to put some really lovely creamy cream (none of your bloody white stuff) in my post-archery coffee when we got back half and hour or so ago. After I'd drunk it (topped up a few times), I says to 'im I says: Coffee tastes different with cream.
DH: "Creamier."
Me: Well yes, but it's not that; it's something on the edge, but I don't know if it's the edge of the coffee or the edge of the cream.
DH: Silence but dons humour her look.
Me: Sniff (huffily). Some people just don't understand.
So... um... does anyone?
He's on the G&T (Fentimans tonic, which he says is like gin only without the alcohol – and he gives me the patient look!)
Just thought I'd ask.
