Readers have shared their memories of one childhood delicacy from Liverpool that "you haven't lived if you haven't baked."
The Liverpool ECHO recently took a look back at the Wet Nelly cake - a treat modelled after a Nelson cake, a traditional Lancashire fruit cake. According to Speke Hall, the Wet Nelly started out life as a bun loaf.
Years ago, shopkeepers are said to have put the bun loaf in the shop window, trickling treacle over it, with heat from the sun making the treacle run. The longer it stood, the wetter it became - hence the name Wet Nelly.
