A gorgeous still life. I love the elegance of this and the diagonal composition. I want a bite too. BV

Corking shot of this quintessentially comfort food...hold the butter though, young man; it can't be good for you!!! :o))

A nice shot, but there are two things wrong, someone took a bite out of your cake and there is what look like (yech) milk in your tea. ;o)

It looks like you know how to make a proper cup o' tay anyway :-) Love Eccles but never had one with butter on! Super high key.

Excellent compo and lighting a real delight ,,,,v

there's a 'currant' of comfort running through this image...that looks a hot cuppa in the cold weather, and perhaps you felt those fierce winds across the north today...some nights it's best just to tuck in...V

those Eccles Cakes weigh a ton - good job you lightened the image...

Looks like a tasty afternoon snack!

Oh I love Eccles and haven't had one in a long long time...would rather a weak black tea though ;)

Excellent lighting and placement, a great shot. V

Is that butter on an Eccles Cake? I'v been eating them naked all this time! I have to say that you do well for cakes and puddings.

Sounds and looks great, good idea to stay in tonight.
