I’ve long been intrigued with the thought of Phoenicians & Cornish trading Saffron for copper & tin in ancient times. It’s speculated this was how Saffron came to Cornwall.

There’s a tradition for Saffron buns in Cornwall which were part of Tea Treats, still in the children memory of older folk I’ve chatted with.

Saffron buns (or Safran in Cornish) are still available in local bakeries - we used to have ours for the beach, I love the currants! It’s a labour intensive delicate job to collect & preserve this autumn blossoming crocus’s stigma. Saffron’s expensive. Famously its weight worth more than gold.

Might splash out & buy some from a local farm which is growing it again, & get out my baking pan…
