What one do you choose?

I'm just curious.

For me it's always a sprinkle doughnut Grin I never really explore other options.

Sucker for an apple danish!

Apologies for my bad grammar I typed that out very quickly and aware it should be 'which one'

Very sickly and not had one for years, but a Bavarian Slice or a piece of black forest gateaux

JayAlfredPrufrock · 21/05/2024 22:03

Courting cake.

Portuguese tart if trendy bakery, millionaire shortbread if not

Coffee tower!

oh a sprinkle donut could never catch my eye.

I like something custardy.

rinseandrepeat1 · 21/05/2024 22:06

I am googling some of these that I haven't heard of and they look delicious.

I love Bavarian slices @TheNortherner but didn't actually know that's what they were called! Quite difficult to eat without all the cream oozing out but delicious.

I like those little tarts with creme patisserie and fresh fruit on top.

Pombearprincess · 21/05/2024 22:06

Gypsy Tart - I'm in Kent, I've never sen it anywhere else.

recklessgran · 21/05/2024 22:07

Belgium bun. Wonderful!

I am so obsessed by those big, pillowy apple 'danish' that are just a vast rectangle of apple-stuffed bread dough slathered in white icing (and preferably with toasted almond flakes sprinkled on top) that sometimes I make a whole batch of them at home.

I would do actual violence for a London Cheesecake (notable for being... not a cheesecake). You can't get them round here, though, and I've never been able to find the right coconut shreds to make them myself.

An eclair every time.

SophiaElise · 21/05/2024 22:11

Lemon drizzle slice.

HeartandSeoul · 21/05/2024 22:11

Cinnamon bun, every time 😍

Same! Custard slice or custard tart for me...or if I'm back home, a Manchester Tart 😍

Yes! And a coffee cream tower

BaronessBomburst · 21/05/2024 22:14

A cheese scone, if there's butter available.
If not, a gingerbread man or something with custard.

Civilservant · 21/05/2024 22:14

eccles slice

@FannyFifer Good shout, I alternate this with a coffee tower, both solid choices.

Although baynes yumyums are gorgeous too!

Fuck me, I think I've just found the right coconut! It's been a while since I last googled it. I do have to buy a kilo of it, though, which will be a terrible hardship. 🤷
