In The Trumpet Major, Thomas Hardy describes a seed-cake as ‘so richly compounded that it opened to the knife like a freckled buttercup’. Seed cake dates back for centuries, notably in Scotland. Though not often baked these days, this cake with that pervading aniseed taste imparted by the seeds has a definite following.
