Afternoon tea

Buttery shortbread is topped with a fudgy blondie mix swirled with the classic flavours of a Bakewell tart

Pop these cute mini cakes in a gift box tied with ribbon to take to your Christmas host, or wrap individually for a fun table favour

Also popular in Lancashire, a proper sticky Yorkshire parkin is made with treacle and is traditionally eaten on ‘Parkin Sunday’ in November

Similar to a crumble, but with a much crunchier topping, this is great paired with the caramel notes of the ice cream.

Apple crumble with your cuppa? These crumble-crusted cookies are the perfect solution! Toss in a few blackberries if you like, or swap in some pear.

Everyone’s favourite loaf cake gets an upgrade with a swirl of baked vanilla cheesecake hidden in its sticky middle.

Slices of this loaf cake are lovely served warm with Greek yogurt for a quick pud, but equally good cold with a cuppa

The treacle adds a lovely warming toffee-like flavour to these puffy, light scones studded with pieces of sticky dried fig.

Pairing soft, earthy goat’s cheese and juicy seasonal blackberries, this panna cotta makes for an impressive dinner party dessert and is surprisingly easy to make
