Bad news: Tetley's Yorkshire Tea Loaf, which I spotted in a supermarket and thought might be a pale imitation of the tea bread my mother used to make, is actually a completely different thing. And it's really not that nice. Far too sweet, not enough dried fruit and far too little tea (10% Yorkshire tea infusion according to the ingredients, whereas my mother's was soaked in a pint of tea overnight).
Good news: well, it is nevertheless cake!
