seedcake
Spiced tea bread
Seedcake is a sweet cake flavored with caraway or other aromatic seeds, traditional in British baking.
Once common at celebrations and tea time, it now reads as old-fashioned: She served seedcake and sherry to her guests.
The seeds give the cake a distinctive, slightly licorice-like flavor.
