A bloomer loaf to me is long and sort of oval.

And I might have guessed BC would be on here. :-D We wore navy blue ones at school with pockets in - knickers not loaves.

Fadge means something different round here too !!!!!!!! *goes pale* lol

Youngest made bread rolls yesterday Joy...she's got the cooking bug and did them pretty much by herself by hand...they were lovely.!!!!

Same can't be said for the state of my kitchen though but hey ho lol.

A bloomer to me is either a flattish loaf with lines scored across it.

Or a pantaloon type underwear from days gone by lol x

I was going to reply by saying 'knickers' but we don't call bread that lol.

we have Sandwich loaf...which is a standard loaf, bloomer, which is long and oval with cuts across the top, bun loaf, which is the big one and little one on top, bread rolls....large bread rolls which we call baps.

Then we have white, brown wholemeal, rye, oatmeal, sesame seeded, poppy seeded, sunflower, pumpkin, sliced, uncut, crusty, tiger.....




JOY!!! You broke the thread....take some arrows off hun x
