Just back from the Scottish borders, tireless in my search for cake. Favourite discovery of the trip: Melrose Tart, invented by local bakers Dalgetty’s for the Millennium celebrations. It’s made with traditional local ingredients (notably honey and ginger) and decorated in yellow and black, the town’s rugby colours. And it’s available only in Dalgetty’s gorgeous tea room in Melrose. How cool is that? A perfect local tradition, only thirteen years old.
