The Joy Of Tunnocks ♥
The Tunnocks tea-room bakery display features cyclists, and best of all, tea-cake owls! Via Anne at I Like!
Nice to see them still pushing the Dark Chocolate flavours, although I think I’m still yet to see a dark chocolate teacake in this ‘ere London. Then again! I am no teacake fan. Get your marshmallows off me bleeergh cough hack splutter. Even IF they are arguably the most fun to eat in their methodology as long as you do it correctly, ie smash the teacake against your forehead first in order to crack the chocolate coatin. If you like, you can shout “Haaaaaaai-YAAAA!” whilst doing so, but hey, it’s not essential. I’d shout “YAAAMAPIII DAAAAAAI-SKKKIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII” – or I would – if I liked teacakes. But as I don’t – my confession remains…. unmade. DAMN YOU FOUL MARSHMALLOW.
It’s not even a sodding teacake! A teacake is like, well, a fruit bread thing!
Oh my Gee

The Tunnocks teacake was a teacake long before I ever came across anything different called a teacake. And yes, it was so important to crack the chocolate one way or another, then to peel off the chocolate bit by bit, then to scrape off the marshmallow with your teeth, and then finally to eat the biscuit.
Funny, only yesterday I was discussing Tunnocks Caramel Wafers and Caramel Logs with a Weegie lassie while sitting in spring sunshine in Great Langdale eating our sandwiches in the spring sunshine.
HURRAH – my mum used to work at Tunnock’s!
the thing that teacakedebate boy is describing is a BAP, clearly. or possibly a ROLL.
the things that tunnocks make are Chocolate Teacakes, things with currants in, but no cross on top are teacakes (best toasted, obv.)
tunnocks piecakes <– the hacienda must be built!
