Time for Tea: Victorian Tea-Time Treats and Decadent Desserts brings together a unique collection of nearly 650 authentic Victorian recipes. The following list is representative but not inclusive; for instance, when there are multiple variations on the same recipe (e.g., chocolate cake), the item is listed only once. The list also does not include recipes for which no actual name or title was given, and "functional" recipes such as pastry and icing.
