The Cakeyboi Alphabet - R

R is for Rock Cake

Rock cakes are a small fruit cake, popularised in Great Britain. They have less eggs and sugar so were promoted by the Ministry of Food during the Second World War, when these commodities were scarce. They were also bulked out by oatmeal at the time, which was easier to come by. They have quite a rough, jagged appearance, hence the name Rock Cake.

    1. I've been pondering this CC, think I might have a film and tv theme cartoon time - what do you think ?
