An English classic, the Bakewell Slice. Buttery throughout with almond sponge and punchy raspberry jam.

Our Bakewell Slice has a crisp butter base and a light sponge middle. We are generous with the raspberry jam and this makes for a wonderfully flavoursome cake. Whole cherries are pulled through the jam adding a brilliantly fruity flavour.

For an enjoyable weekend lunch or afternoon tea, our recipe for tasty Gloucestershire Rarebit  is a great combination with the Bakewell Slice. We advise a walk either side though.
