My answer:
"A similar Porter Cake was made here in England, named after the dark smoky taverns and ale houses known as Porter Houses, where it was widely believed 'Porters' drank the dark ale."

The book is "Cakes, Regional and Traditional", by Julie Duff.

The nearest book to me is my thesis, but on p123 there are <5 sentences (yes, you can all stop laughing about clinicians' PhDs right now, it's a page with some graphs on).
