Simnel cake is a light fruit cake associated with Easter, though it originated from Mothering Sunday, the 4th Sunday of Lent, when people return traditionally to the ‘Mother’ church. This Sunday was set aside to allow girls in service to return home to their mothers and this cake was traditionally taken as a gift. The cake has a layer of marzipan in the centre and on top, and it is traditional to decorate it with 11 balls of marzipan to commemorate the true apostels, with Judas not represented. The cake differs in shape from place to place.

Traditionally, only the evening's raw milk was used for Single Gloucester. This was then skimmed and mixed with whole milk from the following morning's milking. Now, it is generally made from skimmed milk from either or both milkings. There are still farm produced versions available and, in an ideal world, this should come from the milk of the lovely Gloucester cow. (PDO).
