[Untitled][edit]

How far back can this rhyme be traced? Have Peter and Iona Opie written about this rhyme? -- The Anome 13:57, 15 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Patty Cake Pans[edit]

Taking a cue from the rhyme, a modern shallow muffin tin, often with a rounded bottom, are called "patty cake" pans, but I have no idea when they first appeared. Janko (talk) 11:13, 15 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Mark it With...[edit]

I'm nearly sure that the original version was...

Roll it in flour and mark it with TEA.

When you brush tea on bread it leaves a dark stain after baking, and can be used to write initials onto a loaf to distinguish it from the other ones.

Probably people heard "T" instead of tea., not knowing. — Preceding unsigned comment added by DHBoggs (talk • contribs) 19:45, 19 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Baby?[edit]

When I was a toddler, I remember hearing "for baby and me" instead of "for baker and me". There should be more research into these alternative lyrics JayBirdtyper (talk) 02:30, 6 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]
