Rock cakes are irregularly shaped, and do indeed look a little rocky. They are about the size of the palm of a small child's hand,and contain dried fruit. Their crust is quite hard, which I think gives them their name. I think that an American equivalent may be drop scones? [Not too sure about this.] Where's that man Nichols when we need him? Probably gone off to get himself hitched.
Meanwhile, can someone tell me if bunloaf is simply fruity bread, or is it something else?
