What is the name of the traditional Halloween cake in Ireland?
If I could suggest one having grown up in Ireland, we always had Christmas Pudding and custard or Trifle. I wish I had a recipe but I don't, so try a search on some UK search engines. The custard can be bought in a powder form that you just add hot milk to, you can find it in the US at speciality stores like World Market, it's called Bird's Custard Powder, or you could ask you local grocer if he can order it. Hope that at least steers in the right direction.
