Additional Information

Recipe & flavour

Recipe: Made with pure butter, juicy sultanas, raisins, currants, sumptuous cherries, tangy orange and lemon peel and a pinch of spice. Before baking, the dried vine fruits are soaked overnight in a fine quality brew of Earl Grey tea. 

Flavour: Deliciously rich, dark, moist and fruity. The famous Earl Grey tea is made with oil of Bergamot, infusing this cake with a sophisticated hint of Bergamot without being too strong. It provides a subtle tea-time flavour, perfect for enjoying as part of an ‘English Afternoon Tea’ celebration.

Presentation
