    Visited St Davids last year and ate about 25 welsh cakes in a week. No regrets.

    Good morning from very wet Florida. Hurricane Elsa blew through here just after midnight and it is still raining, but not as hard. Your griddle cakes would be a welcome treat this morning. Thanks for the video.

    The Welsh cakes would come in handy during my long hours at work. I’m a postal carrier.

      HI Tina. Yes they would be a convenient snack to take with you to work. I was a postman back in the way distant past, 1975-78.

    I’m Welsh and cook mine on a traditional bakestone your griddle looks good! The ones with jam are gorgeous as well! ❤

      Hi Heather. I imagine cooking on a traditional stone would be even better. Thanks very much.

    They look really good, my mum would always cook batches of these and drop scones at the same time, both always eaten with butter, lots of butter!

    Thank you for this lovely recipe, I sometimes buy these from M&S as a treat, but they look so easy to make I will do them myself and save some money!

    • @geoffsbakingblog
      @geoffsbakingblog  3 роки тому

      HI Karen. I haven't seen them in M&S, I will have to take a look. But, as you say, they are very easy to make, and you can experiment with flavours.

    Oooh I’ll have to make these! I’ve been watching several of your videos and subscribed. The digestive biscuits were easy and lovely. My husband loved them too. He said the aftertaste is really nice. Thank you for sharing! I went to England with my grandmother when I was a kid many many years ago. I think I gained 10 lbs in two weeks from bakery goods! 🤣

      Hi Henrietta, dried cranberries will work well, slightly more tart than raisins etc, but very good.

    Very nice indeed! Hot, dripping with butter, and a cup of tea. Couldn’t wish for more! Would chopped dates be in order, might be nice? Thanks, Geoff x

    • @geoffsbakingblog
      @geoffsbakingblog  3 роки тому

      HI Eureka Lass. Thanks very much. Yes I think some chopped dates would work well, nice and sticky and perhaps a little sweeter than sultanas.

  • @garyz2043
    @garyz2043 3 роки тому

    I,m going to try make some but with very little sugar. I am type one diabetic so don't need it.I don't have any sweet teeth and the sultanas and currents should make it sweet enough. A little bit of sugar wont kill me though.I am Welsh and have just got a cast iron griddle so it is my duty to make some :)

      Hi Gary. I do hope you enjoy them on your new griddle.
