Put the items in your preferred order.

Cornish Pasty
Buttery pastry stuffed with beef, swede and potato. Best eaten warm with the wind whipping off the coast.

Eccles Cake
Sticky currants tucked into crisp puff pastry, dusted with sugar. Looks humble, tastes like a hug.

Chelsea Bun
A sweet, spiced, sultana-packed coil that's stood the test of time since the 1700s. Pair with a strong brew.

Bakewell Tart
Shortcrust, raspberry jam, frangipane and that iconic glacé cherry on top. Pure Peak District perfection.

Welsh Cake
Spiced, buttery and just sweet enough, cooked on a hot bakestone. Best snaffled while still warm.
