Hummingbird cake , like carrot cake with added pineapple sometimes called passion cake or a macaron or twelve

I love Bakewell Tarts and fruit scones. Cake wise, I do like a chocolate or Dundee cake.

Carrot cake with really thick cream cheese frosting

Fresh cream apple turnover

Black forest gateau or bakewell tart.

Pecan pie 😋

Coffee cake that hasn't been ruined with walnuts.
Traditional Victoria sponge
Ginger loaf cake
Flapjack
Shortbread
Fruit cake, a nice simple one with no mixed peel and not so much fruit you can't see the cake.
Lemon drizzle

All the above are things I would happily buy!

Not a fan of the current trend for everything being ultra loaded like super chocolatey brownies that are stuffed with chocolate bars. or layer cakes that are so high they are impossible to eat. Or cupcakes that are more icing than cake.

Iced bun with some currants/sultanas

Parkin and/or Eccles cake.

Carrot cake
Cinnamon buns

Sorry, what??

Coffee cake no walnuts
Lemon drizzle
Millionaires shortbread with a good thick layer of caramel
