    Freedom Slices!
    Don’t forget to change the icing to yellow and blue for maximum virtue signalling points!

    as not sold at the Salisbury Cathedral tea rooms – though sometimes offered as a last snack before you disappear off a balcony courtesy of the FSB in house hotel welcoming party – always remember to go for the ground floor option is you’re on Putra’s naughty step

      I’d rather he not shuffle off this mortal coil without a murder conviction. And I’d like to see him spend a few long years in prison before popping his clogs.

    Not having their cake and eating it are Russian swimmers. Russia has been stripped of its right to host the 2022 World Swimming Championships

      All that practice swimming in their own blood gone to waste.

      They’re taking massive casualties.

    Looks like less cake more brown bread for these lads.

    Ukraine’s military surround the towns of Bucha, Irpin and Hostomel near Kyiv. It means that the Russian troops north-west of Kyiv are now encircled.I do l

    I do like the sound of this though

    A fashionably late French move – as they had to be called out and shamed into it – though why anyone who own one is beyond my comprehension –

    There’s no before and after
    Sorry to be the passion killer

    Like the Cork Battenburg, Tipsy Cake is a Cork confection

    That’s a Russian Slice everywhere else

    One of two things happened here

    Stafford’s – who supply Dunnes Tipsy Cake under both stickers
    And have done for years
    – on this occasion a batch meant for the South ended up wherever the above Dunnes is located

    Or they’ve just opted to copy Cork – and Tipsy (◠‿◕) cake tis

    You’ll often see the same issue with Stafford’s Chester Slices, they sometimes pick up a Dublin accent and sound like Gur Cakes

    If any of ye folly me on the Twitter
    Ye might have picked up on the project to develop a home bake recipe for Tipsy Cake in the same way I did the Cork Battenburg

    Tipsy cake, especially Stafford’s btw, is prone to unpredictability – changeable and inconsistent
    It’s the trifle sandwich filler, and the dosage of Sherry

    Proper Tipsy Cake is a log btw
    And originally a lot more robust and firmer

    Not these plastic covered squares that are too soft and not the nice kinda moist
    Although I’d still eat one (◔‿◔)

    Anyway it’s a story of cake
    Nothing else Broadsheet
