Welsh cakes (pice ar y mean) are the mainstay of  every te bach. While many use the time-honored recipes, Welsh cake pioneers like Kim Corbin are constantly inventing new ones. Her latest creation was unveiled at the te bach on May 6, 2017, during the Celtic Weekend for All in Spring Green, WI, and was a tremendous hit.  So many asked for the recipe that we have added this recipe page to the website to give everyone access to the tasty treats.
