Definition: A traditional Irish fruity, spicy tea bread eaten with butter.

Brack is one of Ireland's most famous bakery products. The name comes from breac which means speckled, referring to the fruit in the loaf.

Brack is traditionally eaten at Halloween but is too delicious to save for just once a year. Eat it at tea time, or as part of your St Patrick's Day celebrations.
