Rules:

1. BE KIND

Food should bring people together, not tear them apart. Think of the human on the other side of the screen, and don't troll, harass, engage in bigotry, or otherwise make others uncomfortable with your words.

2. NO ADVERTISING

This community is for sharing pictures of awesome food, not a platform to advertise.

3. NO MEMES

4. PICTURES SHOULD BE OF FOOD

Preferably good, high quality pictures of good looking grub; for pictures of terrible food, see [email protected]

Welcome to adulthood. No, it actually doesn't get better. Quite the opposite, in fact.

I've never heard of earl grey in a cake, but that sounds tasty!

Cake. Earl Grey. Frosted.

That sounds like an interesting combination. Especially for a cake.

Dates cakes are really underrated. Never did try earl grey in cakes, wouldn't that make them too bitter?

Just steep it in 80°C water rather than boiling water. This will mean less tannins are extracted

Earl gray lemon bars are delicious. Could definitely see it in cake.
