Bakewell - it’s all about the icing. And the jam

It’s time. Get your favourite supermarket cheapies, the posh ones and the best recipes down here.

Should they be a slice or a tart? Should there be a cherry? Should they be iced or dusted?

Why bakewell? Well, they are British and arguably (:grinning:) our finest confection, we couldn’t really do a pasteis de nata thread because the best ones are in Portugal. Bakewells are also incorruptible with bacon, sriracha and other shit. I hope. :rage:

you can also get a bakewell pudding. We enjoyed our visit to Bakewell

but I have to be careful, as I’m allergic to Strawberries.

That’s what I meant. The tart is a bastard child of the pudding.
The area is lovely.

Everywhere sells them. Unsurprisingly.
