Apparently some branches of Greggs stock them.

So, has anyone here actually tried one?

I don't know what that means? I assume you don't mean you'd punch it? They're very crumbly. The bits always stick to your coat. Impossible to hide from your grandmother that you and Grandad went to the bakery on the way back from the park and THAT'S what spoiled your appetite.

They're very nice, but the most unhealthy thing on the planet.

What's more unhealthy than puff pastry covered in icing? Maybe if you put some cigarettes inside it :P

A Big Mac and fries? A lard sandwich? Deep fried Mars Bar?

The list is endless.

Ok, you can dream about me.

But no London Cheesecake involvement.

Reminds me of Manchester tart. As noted by my friend Pete, who hailed from Manchester and was... ahem... a particularly large man, "That's not from Manchester. If they made that in Manchester, I wouldn't be as fat as I am."

Which also had coconut in. I'm spotting a theme here.

Coconut cakes are clearly the cuckoos of the cake world

Yeah, that's because you're not real Londoners. I was born in Queen Charlotte's, along with Harry Potter, Dr Who and the Queen (Helen Mirren). I bet they all know what a cheesecake is.

They're actually really nice. You can get them with marshmallow on instead of coconut, if you're coconut shy. Hahahaha.

Honestly I don't think it counts unless you put a frame around your avatar to raise awareness and show your support.

Being extraordinarily bored and working from home, I started randomly opening old threads. This being one of them.

Still never seen a London cheesecake.

My Ma finally made it up to visit yesterday and brought these with her as she knew I’d been looking for one for SO LONG. She had to order them from a bakery and have them delivered and then drove them up to the Midlands for us.

Hullo,

I'm not sure if I've asked this here before at some point, but after a chat with a friend yesterday about these, I thought I'd ask if anyone recognises them, or knows what they're called (if there are other names around) as I'm fairly sure they are particularly regional.

Edit: should have said: it's puff pastry and sugar, sometimes with jam, or currants if you're a deviant, covered in icing and grated coconut.
