It is Mothering Sunday in the UK, and the Quimper Hittys are helping their British friends celebrate…

Earl Grey Tea Cake

Earl Grey Tea Cake

A kind Hitty friend sent a recipe for this cake which includes ingredients like Earl Grey Tea and Cardamom – and Rose obligingly scattered dried rosebuds on the tea-flavoured icing…How delicious!

  2. what a charming name for a holiday. Even we non mothers do our own version of mothering. Lovely name.
    Rose is such a pretty girl. And that cake looks delightful!!

  3. Dear Rose – Can we get the recipe for Earl Grey Tea cake. It looks so delicious. So perfect for U.K. Mothering Day.

    • The cake I made was a cardamom cake recipe, but with strong Earl Grey tea used instead of milk. The icing is just icing sugar made with a few drops of strong Earl Grey tea, and decorated with roses.
