Tea cakes

[Duckfoot]

To settle an argument can anybody tell me whether a currant tea cake is classed as bread or as a bun?

[eyebrows]

cake

[bensmum]

Definitely cake. You can get fruit loaf which is more like bread

[tiggerblue10]

I would say its a bun.

[evedawn]

oh dear... hope i don't stir things up...i would've said bread myself.

[tiggerblue10]

They look like flatter versions of hot cross buns to me.

[daffy654]

Just like a bread bun but with fruit in it. I eat packs of them every week as they are my favourite breakfast food.

In Scotland, they are included in the classification 'tea breads'.
