Teacake – słodka bułka zrobiona z ciasta drożdżowego, którą opieka się jak tosty. Je się ją najczęściej przekrojoną na pół i posmarowaną masłem. W Wielkiej Brytanii stanowi część tzw. tea time. Podobnie jak do polskiego ciasta drożdżowego, do teacake podstawowo dodaje się suszone porzeczki, "currants". Istnieje odmiana tego ciasta, zwana "Chelsea bun", od dzielnicy Chelsea w Londynie. W tym wypadku ciasto jest zawinięte i po upieczeniu posypanecukrem i cynamonem, lub oblane lukrem.
