I didn’t have Mr Kipling down as a German. The things you learn. I must tell my mate.
I thought you were well up on WW2 history. Haven't you heard of, the shortage of "sehr gute Kuchen" that decimated morale on the Eastern Front?
Herr Kippelhoff made sehr gute Kuchen but the brand was withdrawn after WW2 due to supplying the Reich. Rank Hovis McDougall nicked the recipes and relaunched as Mr Kipling in the 1960s.
