American Tea Cake
An American tea cake is a type of small, sweet cake that is often served with tea. It is usually a soft, tender cake that is slightly sweet and has a cake-like texture. It is often made with simple ingredients such as flour, sugar, eggs, and butter, and is often flavored with vanilla, lemon, or almond. Tea cakes can be served plain, or they can be decorated with icing, sprinkles, or other toppings. They are commonly found at bakeries and cafes, and are often served as a sweet treat or dessert.

Origin story
The origin of the American tea cake is somewhat unclear, as the term "tea cake" has been used to describe a variety of different baked goods throughout history. However, it is believed that the American tea cake as we know it today has roots in the southern United States, where it was a popular type of cake served at tea parties and other social gatherings.
One popular theory is that the tea cake was introduced to the United States by English settlers, who brought with them a tradition of serving small, sweet cakes with tea. Over time, the recipe for the tea cake was adapted to incorporate local ingredients and flavors, resulting in the soft, tender cake that is now considered a staple of American baking.
Regardless of its exact origin, the American tea cake has become a beloved treat that is enjoyed by people of all ages and backgrounds. Whether served plain or topped with icing and other sweet decorations, tea cakes are a staple of American bakeries and cafes, and are often served with tea or coffee as a sweet and satisfying snack.
