“I just joined your club, I have bought your product and can’t rave about it anymore it is the best thing I have ever bought, I should be on a commission as I buy it for friends as they are so flabbergasted when I tell them about your product as they all think it is shop bought cake. Never failed to make a great cake yet, I am not the best baker in the world but never had such good ready made ingredients. Thank you for this brill product my cupboard always has at least two of the flour products in it, so when visitors come round I can just whisk up some cupcakes of the loaf tin cake. Looking forward to trying more of your products and recipes. ”

These terrific Teacakes are delicious served warm with butter - they also freeze well once completely cooled.
