cobblers
Fruity baked desserts
Cobblers has two distinct meanings in English.
A cobbler is someone who repairs shoes, or a baked fruit dessert with a thick crust: peach cobbler, berry cobbler.
Separately, cobblers is British slang for nonsense or rubbish: That's a load of cobblers.
This slang derives from rhyming slang "cobbler's awls" for balls.
