Scones are typical cakes, very popular among Irish people. Originally coming from Scotland, this little pastry made of raisins was literally adopted by Irish and English people, many centuries ago! Scones can be found everywhere in Ireland in bakeries, tea-houses, or in every household, and they are delicious dipped in tea or coffee for tea-time!
