Welsh cakes are a traditional treat from Wales, combining simple ingredients like flour, sugar, butter, eggs, and dried fruits such as currants or raisins, with a hint of warming spices like nutmeg or cinnamon. These flat, round cakes are cooked on a griddle rather than baked, giving them a soft, crumbly texture with a lightly caramelized exterior. As a sweet snack, they are often enjoyed plain or dusted with sugar, paired with tea or coffee. While Welsh cakes are an excellent source of quick energy due to their carbohydrate content, their high sugar and butter levels mean they should be eaten in moderation. They reflect the simple and hearty culinary traditions of Welsh cuisine, offering a delightful balance of comfort and nostalgia.
