....... Tunnocks Tea Cakes - Spooky!

Thomas Tunnock Limited is a family baker in Scotland formed in 1890.

The Tunnock's Tea Cake is a popular sweet cake consisting of a small round shortbread biscuit covered with a dome of meringue similar to marshmallow and encased in a thin layer of milk chocolate.

Tunnock's Tea Cakes became a favourite ration snack of the V bomber nuclear deterrent flight crews after they discovered that they expanded at high altitude but this came to an end when one was left unwrapped on the instrument panel and exploded in the air.

I love Tunnocks Tea Cakes and sorely miss them now that I am on a gluten-free diet.
