Welsh cakes are a sweet, quick bread, spiced and studded with currants. The thin rounds of dough were traditionally cooked on a heated bakestone over an open fire, which led to alternative names of bakestones, griddle cakes or pics (from the Welsh term picau ar y maen meaning ‘cakes on the stone’). Delicious served hot or cold, they are often dusted with sugar.
