The cakes are also known as bakestones within Wales because they are traditionally cooked on a about 1.5 cm or more thick which is placed on the fire or cooker. Welsh cakes are made from Flour , Butter or Lard , Eggs , Sugar , and Currants and/or Raisins . They are roughly circular, a couple of inches (4–6 cm) in diameter and about half an inch (1–1.5 cm) thick. Welsh cakes are served hot or cold dusted with Caster Sugar . Unlike scones, they are not usually eaten with an accompaniment, though they are sometimes sold ready split and spread with Jam , and they are sometimes buttered. They are often eaten with Tea . In some regions of Wales, the bakestone is a food separate from the Welsh cake, being larger and less sweet. SEE ALSO EXTERNAL LINKS |
