Sunday Tea, April 2011


I made these Fat Boy Snicker Bars earlier.
They are from Donal Skehan's new book Kitchen Hero,
I reckon they would be a very welcome treat of a Sunday afternoon.

Welcome to the first of what I hope will be a regular Sunday Tea post.  Come in, grab a chair, pour yourself a nice cup of tea and have a bite to eat and a slice of cake or three.  A couple of weeks ago I posted about the lovely Sunday teas we enjoyed growing up.  Gathered around tables laden with food in our house or my aunties, chatting, laughing and eating.  Sure isn't that what Sundays were made for.  I asked people to send in their own Sunday tea pictures and you can view them below.  If you would like to send me a picture for a future Sunday tea post you can email it to likemamusedtobake@hotmail.com, mark the email Sunday Tea.  For now you can drool over the beautiful cakes that evoke Sunday tea for some lovely Like Mam Used to Bake readers.  Enjoy, and a very happy Easter to you all.


Katzwizkaz took inspiration from Mammy's Kitchens Porter Cake
to make some changes to her mam's boiled cake.
Looks like a very happy marriage of two recipes.



A beautiful Victoria Sponge sent in by Claire.
Just look at those juicy strawberries.



English Mums Grandma Maudie's Cranberry Tea bread.
What a great picture!



A stunning Victoria Sponge from Mammy's Kitchen.
The picture just screams lazy summer Sunday's picnicking in the garden, beautiful.



Sunday in Paula's mams house is never complete without a Lemon Madeira Cake,
although they enjoy it without the lemon peel and icing.
I think it looks fantastic with.

    They are all fab. I will try to take a photo for your next one ;0) Great memories of Sunday evenings as a child. Little sandwiches. Little scones. Little buns. Lovely teas. Great idea. Looking forward to seeing it next Sunday already.

    Hi WiseMóna,

    They are beautiful pictures. Please do send me on a picture, it will probably be a few weeks before I do the next post so no pressure to send it in this week.

    The Glutton,

    They all look so yummy, don't they. Hopefully it will be a regular thing. So long as people keep sending me pitures I will keep doing the post. :)
