Cake election results

We've just counted the cake election votes and I am, yet again, surprised. I realise that this may not be of great interest to anyone else...

2017

Lemon Drizzle - 32%

Carrot - 20%

Coffee/walnut - 16%

Chocolate - 14%

Fruit and Victoria Sponge - 9% each

Lemon drizzle has increased its majority by 5 percentage points from two years ago. Almost one in three people voted Lemon Drizzle.

Carrot has risen from fifth place to second, with 20% of all votes cast.

Chocolate and coffee & walnut both lost a little in percentage terms since the last election but the big loser is Victoria Sponge which lost 5% of its votes and brought up the rear with last time's loser fruit cake. 

Is it time for Fruit cake to bow out gracefully?
