Not knocking Mikey's here - his are the best
Welshcakes seem to generate strong feelings between Welsh Cake cooks - each cook declaring that their's are best and much nicer than so-and-so's.
My Mum reckoned her's were the best and if anyone gave her some of their's she'd accept politely and eat them but mutter to me afterwards about how they didn't have enough "this" or too much "that".
They're also gifts for friends. My neighbour across the road sometimes appears at my front door with a tinfoil wrapped parcel of Welsh cakes, still warm from the bakestone. She'll give me some and then moves on to the neighbours with a package for them too. She says you can't make just a few at a time - and I agree!!
My niece in law brought a basket of them to a family funeral last year - we couldn't have a wake but we ate Welshcakes at the crem. Couldn't warm them up there though.
