  2. Ohhh I can almost taste it just by looking at it! ♡♡

  7. New to UK. That looks delicious — what’s it called?

  11. Honestly can’t remember what it tasted like as it’s been so long, but know I loved it!

  13. There’s nothing wrong with that and anyone who says otherwise is doing it for the likes. That’s a cracking school staple and I’d eat it right now

  14. Cooplands do 4 packs. Just scranned two with custard today literally

  15. I’ve never seen the appeal. It’s very plain and bland, plus I don’t like icing.

  18. I used to hang about for leftovers, lovely dinner ladies

  23. BGS school cake?

    The school I went to did those after hating the biscuits as it’s all they did for Friday so I petitioned to get it changed, I actually refused the biscuits and ate Thursday’s dessert instead which there is a lot of variety of instead of the same bloody biscuit

  27. I’m absolutely chuffed for you, finally some good news!!!!

  28. I’m in my 30s and I can still picture the taste and texture from this photo. Classic

  30. not going to lie, i loved this stuff when i was a kid. Personally i preferred the cornflake tart or the apple crumble.

  31. Niiiice. I made banana custard, the other day as I’d not had it in decades!

  34. Does anyone remember a pudding that was basically a coco pops square thing, but it was really dense and compacted? Only way I can think to describe it.

    I’ve been trying to find something similar for ages.

  35. Get ’em to join the Navy, we get “generic sponge pudding with custard” atleast 3 x a week at sea!

  36. School cake was the most elite pudding. Gypsy tart a close second. Hated coco pops in a cupcake wrapper

  37. Lidl have squares of school cake like that in their bakery right now.

  38. I must’ve had a deprived childhood, because I’ve never had this. I mean, I’m pretty sure I’ve had that cake at fêtes or village fairs, but not with custard.

    I’ve clearly missed out on a slice of British culture. And a slice of cake, obviously.

  39. This and cherry pie with custard are my top tier primary school desserts.

  40. Was the best when it was your year group’s day for seconds

  41. I made one once out of pure nostalgia, and didn’t realise just how much sugar was in it, and that’s without the custard lol. These are a gateway to an unhealthy sugar addiction for sure.

    It was as delicious as I remembered, but I probably won’t make it again.
