The Nicest Dessert/Pastry/Cake ?

Nobody dared citing Spotted Richard yet for fear of contravening the swear filter and AndyC's wrath?

Depends on the season. At this time of year, a rhubarb and apple crumble with a good thick custard is never going to disappoint. Summertime, probably a lemon roulade. As an aside, all desserts should be consumed with the option of a further course of cheese and biscuits.

Occasionally I like a good old-fashioned fruit cake with (or without) custard. It always gives me a slightly upset stomach but the flavour is worth it since I don't eat it that often. Used to like the tinned Heinz Sponge Puddings, but they've been discontinued for a few years now.

Make your sponge puddings in the microwave, takes minutes and are delicious.

A fantastic, syrupy microwave sponge pudding, great for when you need a quick fix dessert.

Angel Delight or Pork Scratchings. Too hard to choose.

I had bananas and custard the other month. Haven't had it for eons, surprisingly nice.

At last, a topic I can really get on board with

Chocolate Brownie

Me ma's boiled fruit cake
Eccles cake
Lemon drizzle
Victoria sponge

In that order. No discussion.

Eccles cake is Lancashire's take on decadence. Quite expensive nowadays.

Anything that isn’t coffee flavoured really. Coffee is for drinking, not eating. Like having a ginger beer crumble or a Stella cupcake. Totally stupid

Stout in beef stew is acceptable tho.

Mince pies, stollen, Christmas cake and Christmas pudding are all far too good to be restricted to Christmas time.

Hang on, what about sherry in trifle? Or brandy and in Christmas case and pudding?

Na, I'm not having this no drink in cake/food argument @JimmyJeffers. And none of your funny looks either.

When did desserts get personalities? What's the angriest cake? The saddest pastry?
