Dorchester Abbey Tearoom All the fabulous cakes are made by the lovely ladies of Dorchester and donated to the tearoom.

An army of volunteers work in the tearoom serving tea, washing up and looking after our loyal customers, following in the footsteps of the late Lettice Godfrey.

Raspberry & white chocolate ripple cake
4 layers of soft sponge sandwiched with good raspberry jam and white chocolate Italian meringue buttercream then iced with a raspberry rippled buttercream to finish
Italian buttercream is made with egg whites and much less sugar - whipped to give a really smooth finish
Always a winner!
Tearoom open today 2.30-5pm (but we’re not expecting this cake to last that long!)
