Knowing your love of cake you might be as confused as I was when trying to order a bacon roll from someone who simply couldn't understand what I was saying, then the penny dropped and she said "oh, you mean a bacon cake!".
Yep, a cake was a roll up there (though this was 20 years ago)!
I've never heard of it called just a cake. A tea cake is the right terminology though Yep, a cake was a roll up there (though this was 20 years ago)!

Anything north of Sheffield is the north. To some, anything north of oxford is the north too. I get called a northerner by the London lot and a shandy drinking southerner by the northern lot, but called a hero by everyone (not fat cake eating bastar*)

I just bought a house in Worcestershire, which apparently is firmly in Morning Roll territory. Since I learnt to speak many years ago, I have never ever, used the term Morning Roll when referring to a Roll or a Bap. And yet it seems to be widespread across the British Isles.I'm not starting now, so I'm either going to have to sell the house, or introduce the term Muffin Scuffler to the local dialogue.
