Rose Tea Cake by an English Rose

As an English Rose, I do love a cup of tea- especially alongside a plate of biscuits to dunk, a slice of toast laden with homemade marmalade or a piece of delicious cake. I have always liked the idea of tea loaf and teacake, but sought to recreate the recipe with no fruit added. After searching high and low for a decent recipe with no such luck, I (in)fused two recipes of my own.
