FAQs

1. Can I use all-purpose flour instead of cake flour?
Yes, you can. However, the texture may be slightly different. Cake flour makes the scones softer and lighter.

2. How can I tell when the scones are done?
They should be golden brown on the top. You can also insert a toothpick into the center; it should come out clean.

3. Can I make the dough ahead of time?
Yes, you can make the dough and refrigerate it for up to 24 hours before baking. Just let it warm a bit before shaping and baking.
