The only way to eat a tunnocks teacake

[thebitchinghour]

Is biscuit first, take a slow lick out of the inside and then smash the rest all at once.

My husband says it's indecent.

This is the only way, surely?

Started well, finished badly

All tunnocks products can get in the bin

Was the interview for the Tunnocks factory?

Sorry you had a bad one. A few teacakes will cheer you up though.

Dear god. Just blend the bugger and drink with a straw if you really want to commit.

Hoping to be reincarnated as your dog 🙏🏻

I can't remember the name of the Northern Irish 'tunnocks' we had as a child but way my sisters and I ate them was...
Use left hand to lift fringe clear of forehead.
Use right hand to firmly knock dome of tea cake on forehead. Hard enough to crack the chocolate shell but light enough to avoid mallow explosion.
Pick off chocolate.
Then eat mallow second, and biscuit last.

You're welcome

@thebitchinghour What's your stance on Lee's Snowballs?

I could have had a career in eating those in my youth. They appeared in our house in big boxes with compartments in, like coconutty Christmas tree baubles. We used to gnaw a hole in them like squirrels then try to lick out as much mallow as we could without it collapsing.

I'm very partial to Tunnock's products, all of them. Imo teacakes are best taking off the biscuit base in a oner and slurping out the mallow, or else picking off the chocolate shell to see the texture of the mallow below, like a culinary brain operation.

I uave been accused of very indecent things when eating a tunnock's teacake. I do chocolate shell, then biscuit base before slowly devouring the mallow centre. Can make the whole damn experience last over 5 minutes

I ate 6 of these things last Friday. Unreal. I bit into all 6. So got a piece of everything in every bite

I'm with the OP, although I have to unhinge my jaw slightly to get the biscuit in in one go 🐍

Oh dear.
What's a tunnocks teacake? 🥴
Gonna Google.

The true path.

I agree with all of the comments but what happened to the jam that used to be in them as well. I absolutely love them. Don’t last long here.

Best way is not to eat them at all. Disgusting gloopy things. Far too squidgy.

This is one of those false memory things. Never jam in a tunnocks.

Ate so many of these as a kid. No love for them now. Tea cake all the way.

Microwave for 10 seconds (recent experiment) eat with ice cream flavour of your choice.

Yeug.

They used to be lush, but the marshmallow is now just goo.

Never the same since the jam went.

This is one of those false memory things. Never jam in a tunnocks.

Mistaken identity, I think? Other brands do/did have a bit of jam.

I can do it all in one go 😁

I treat them like a woman likes treating. Attention with nibbling and licking the top part. Then down to the bottom part, caressing and licking before smashing it

There 👏🏻 never 👏🏻 was 👏🏻 jam 👏🏻

I hear pilots used to take them on planes in the war so that they'd expand. I want to replicate this and have a dinnerplate-sized tea cake.

Never occurred to me that anyone's eats the biscuit first. Always thought it was chocolate, mallow then biscuit.

Yep! 🎵This is how you do it🎵(thanks Montell Jordan!)

I agree.
