I believe it was a coffee cake. I was in the middle of a nice hike through the Lake District's countryside when I happened upon this small café lead by an elderly couple who baked a different cake for guests everyday. You just sat down in their backyard and got served what was available today. It was incredibly idyllic, in the midst of fields and meadows.

Can confirm, incredibly lovely place to exist in and go hiking. And when I was there recently, every day except the first one was incredibly bright and sunny; I almost felt robbed of the essential british experience.
