Tea-cake is a type of baked good that is popular in many cultures. It is similar to a SCONE, which is a small, round cake made with flour, butter, and milk, and a MUFFIN, which is a small, sweet cake made with flour, sugar, and butter. Tea-cakes are usually made with flour, sugar, butter, and eggs, and can be served either plain or with a variety of toppings. They are often served as a snack or dessert, and can be enjoyed with tea or coffee.
