I was born in Abergavenny and live within the town. Welsh cakes are cooked on a bakestone or maen—the stone on which they are griddled. Although bake stones are found in all the Celtic countries, only in Wales do they griddle these sweet cakes. A heavy frying pan works well, but take care not to let the sugar in your Welsh cakes burn. Denise & Joe Carbone, owners of The Welsh Baker company welcome you to our online store.
