I'm off to visit Starbucks in central London today to see if they are selling this amazing scone/muffin, I very much doubt it because ours are very basic and no choice compared with the States. One cake I always head for on my yearly visit to the States is the yellow crumb cake with cinnamon topping at Starbucks.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5943719.post-91081797001320666722008-08-29T23:26:00.000-04:002008-08-29T23:26:00.000-04:00masterson: I'm no baking expert, but you may have...masterson: I'm no baking expert, but you may have had too tight a seal on your baking. I usually put my loaves and muffins on a plate and cover with a teatowel. Of course, baking never lasts much longer than a couple of days in our house anyway.

I was just searching to try and find the recipe online since I'm now off work today because of Fay. Thanks for the recipe, I'll try this one. It's funny though that a lot of us try to mimic these at home.
