Which British cake would you demolish first at a birthday party?

A timeless classic with jam, cream and a dusting of icing sugar. Simple, elegant, and always the first to go at any village fete.

Marzipan-wrapped and weirdly satisfying to peel apart before eating. A proper Sunday afternoon telly cake.

That crackly sugar top and tangy sponge combo has caused many an office fight. One slice is never enough.

Frangipane, jam and a cheeky glacé cherry on top. Debate rages on whether it counts as cake or pudding, but nobody says no.

Rich, nutty and just a bit sophisticated. The cake your auntie insists on making because 'the kids won't touch it'.
