Classic Madeira Cake

A Dundee cake is a rich fruitcake made with currants, sultanas, and almonds; sometimes it will also include marmalade and fruit peel. Like many Scottish recipes, it has also been known to have a dash of whisky as well. Yum! The cake is beautifully moist with a rich zesty flavour backed up by a sweetly tart Dundee marmalade. The almonds are not just a design feature but provide a crunch and roasted flavour to an otherwise simple fruitcake.

victoria sponge cake - a traditional English tea time treat

Rock Cakes are British in origin, but where, when, and how exactly they came to be is something that doesn’t seem to be well-known. They’re a popular tea-time treat, and seem to have been around since at least Victorian times. They were also actively promoted by the Ministry of Food during WWII thanks to most Rock Cake recipes using fewer eggs and sugar than a traditional cake. What’s with the name? Well, they’re said to resemble a small rock, as they’re rough in shape. But don’t let that…
