Black Bun

Does anywhere in real life sell Black Bun?

I have found a few places online that I can get it but I can't seem to find any shops that sell it :(

    Never heard of it, so googled it out of curiosity.

    A 'rich fruit cake covered in pastry' doesn't float my boat - but there seem to be plenty of recipes on line if you can't find ready made in the shops.

    It is and acquired taste :)

    I have plenty of recipes, including my mum's but I don't keep all the ingredients at home and I also don't have the patience (nor the whiskey) to soak the fruit for 3 months :o
  • I am sure I seen it in House of Bruar
    maybe a local deli?
