a british culinary classic. Sally Lunn is associated with a famous English teacake or bun, known as the Sally Lunn bun, which is a delicacy originating from Bath, England. The history behind the name is somewhat legendary and not fully verified, but one popular account suggests that Sally Lunn was a young French Huguenot refugee named Solange Luyon, who came to Bath in the late 17th century. According to the legend, Solange (anglicized to Sally) began working in a bakery in Bath, where she introduced a light, brioche-like bread that became very popular. This bread, later known as the “Sally Lunn bun,” was traditionally served warm with butter and became a local favorite. The Sally Lunn bun remains a popular treat, often enjoyed with sweet or savory toppings. The Sally Lunn’s Historic Eating House in Bath, which claims to be the original bakery where Solange Luyon worked, continues to serve these buns to this day. The true historical details of Sally Lunn’s life may be a mix of fact and folklore, but the bun named after her has certainly left a lasting legacy.
