One of the best things to come out of the British Isles is it's cream. Devon cream or clotted cream. One wonderful dessert is meringue with fresh clotted cream and rasberries or strawberries.
Puddings and cakes are popular and unique ones from ages past are still popular today.. Victoria sponge is a really simple recipe with fresh cream and preserves inside, just dusted with powdered sugar. Spotted Dick is a steamed pudding with raisins and topped with custard.
Treacle tart and Bakewell tart.
A nice tray of desserts to go with tea and sandwiches. Scones and clotted cream with preserves.
Knickerbocker glory. Jam tarts, rice pudding and caramel egg custard.
Fruit flans,orange pudding and cakes with Cadbury chocolate flakes. YUM!!!
Scones and egg custard, Dundee cake and steamed pudding
Scones are good warm with butter also, fresh creamy butter naturally with tea.
Pretty cakes
Bread and Butter pudding
Some Christmas lovelies, Christmas pudding, Christmas cake and Yule log.
Eccles cakes with custard and Mince pies............
I could post many many more but I think this will do for now. You must admit there is nothing bland here.

Oh my, you have tickled my taste buds to no end!! I, too, can't understand how English fare could be considered bland. I was always bowled over by the dessert selections on my visits - such a quandary to pick just one. My travel partner and I would by two and then split them so we could savor both.
