That is a bread bun.
A teacake has fruit in and is more squishy looking.
Joe you are an epic fail my dear

Bread bun or even, bap, buttie, roll etcc =



Teacake =

its not a debate

rolls are rolls all around the world

when you go to a posh restaurant anywhere they hand round the bread rolls not the f -ing teacakes, bams, or cobbs!

Lee, I call a teacake what it is. A roll what it is. We say it right up here. And also, I ask for a bacon sandwich, although sometimes in a flatcake

And LT stop being silly.

A tea cake has currants in it.

A roll can be called a barm, that's what it gets called here, I had to get used to that one lol.

A buttie is a sandwich!

It's just different regions have different names for the same thing.

Manchester: barm cake

Liverpool: batch

London: roll
