    • A "barm", you barmpot.
    • A "batch", even in the singular.
    • A "roll", what is says on the tin.
    • A "teacake", even though it's free from currants.
    • Other. Specify or die.

Oh just nail your colours to the baked foodstuff mast. Why does it need multiple names. I'm talking about a common or garden round, soft bread roll. None of your fancy nudgers or batons. Just pick a name.

 

Fuckstick. I forgot "Bap".

I call a bread roll a bread roll, what the hell else would I call it?

A bread roll, yesterday.

 

 

 

As for what I think you were driving at here, the circular bread product commonly used to make butties is a muffin, ffs. Note: Anyone considering a reply that includes the words "chocolate chips" or "blueberry" can fuck right off, right now; as David Bowie said, this is not America.

 

 

A barm cake and a bap are interchangeable terms for a substandard (or imitation) muffin which is comprised largely of air and an entirely innapropriate vehicle for a tasty filling. Some bakeries reportedly hire flatulent old men (often paid below minimum wage) to inflate their barm cakes, using a grotesque series of valves and tubing.

 

Additionally "barm cake" is fairly fond term meaning "idiot", such as a grandmother may use to describe a local man who was kicked in the head by a horse whilst still a child.

 

I really wouldn't try ordering a couple of tuna baps round here, I may get lucky or arrested depending on the shop.
