Now, I love a good roll cake blend also twists and Latakia.
Is there a current Lakatia Roll cake and/or twist on the market as the only one that keeps popping up is MacBaren's Latakia Blend Roll cake which has been discontinued apparently.
Many thanks all!!!

Have recently read that it may be rereleased under a new name. A good blend to be sure, just inaccurately named.

chasingembers- I have read that quite a bit to be honest! It could be the reason it was quite unpopular and was discontinued!
It was around for 50 years. It was a typical MacB blend with just a whisper of Syrian latakia. Dunno if it was inaccurately named, or it was that people were expecting a lat bomb because of the name.

It was probably discontinued because there is a limited amount of Syrian latakia available, and MacB decided to use their store of it in other blends.

I enjoy it; I have several tins stashed away.

I don't know of any roll cakes, but I find that latakia works wonderfully in crumble cakes. Love me some Bengal Slices.
