Baked goods play a surprisingly large role in lolitics fandom.

Cake[edit | edit source]

Ed Balls is a famous cake chef. Examples of his craft may be found here.

Jaffa Cakes[edit | edit source]

Jaffa Cakes are delicious cakes that are often mistaken for biscuits. It is believed that Nick Clegg can remove the Orangey Bit without breaking it.

More Jaffa Cakes than you can shake a stick at.

Pastries[edit | edit source]

Pastries have appeared so often in NuLab fic that they have become something of a trope.

Pancake Day[edit | edit source]

Every pancake there is a Lords vs MPs vs Media Parliamentary Pancake Race for the charity Rehab. This usually results in a lot of ridiculous pictures and videos of members of the legislature with pancake all over them while in cooking-themed fancy dress.

Biscuits[edit | edit source]

Whenever a politician has a Q&A session with Mumsnet they invariably end up answering the question "What is your favourite biscuit?" whether asked to or not. The Telegraph has a hand guide to how various politicians have answered the question (or not as it happens) here.
