I recently learned this from Tasting History.

I had clotted cream growing up and I went to buy some and wasn't surprised I couldn't find it. So I decided to make my own and that's when I realized all the cream on the shelves is ultra pasteurized! It breaks down the bonds in the cream and makes clotting impossible!

You have to bake the cream to make it clot anyway... so frustrating that this choice has been taken from me. I can pay an entire fortune to get it shipped to me, or I could find a "raw milk" person and I don't want to give them business. Also I don't want to get sick! So frustrating!
