Eccles Cakes are traditional British pastries originating from Eccles, Greater Manchester, with a history dating back to the 18th century. They are made from buttery puff pastry filled with a mixture of dried currants, sugar, and warm spices such as nutmeg and cinnamon. These small, round treats are often topped with a sprinkling of sugar for extra sweetness and baked until golden and flaky. While Eccles Cakes are rich in energy due to their high sugar and fat content, they provide fiber from the currants and some antioxidants from the dried fruit and spices. However, their indulgent nature makes them more suited for occasional enjoyment rather than regular consumption, as they are relatively high in calories, saturated fat, and refined carbs. These pastries are often enjoyed with tea or coffee, offering a classic taste of British culinary heritage in every bite.
