About this dish

Treacle tart is a British tart with a filling made from golden syrup. The earliest known recipe is from the English author Mary Jewry in her cookbooks from the late 19th century; however, mentions of treacle tarts predate her cookbooks. For example, in April 1828, a Mrs. Delafields of Fan-street (a treacle tarts, green-grocery and periwinkles seller) in London appeared upon summons as to why she was allowed to keep a ferocious dog after a complaint was made against her.
