About
| This twist on classic Welsh cakes uses naked barley flour, a nutritious, versatile and flavoursome alternative to wheat flour. Barley flour is subtly earthy with a delicate sweet aftertaste. |
Welsh cakes are a classic bake, also known as picau ar y maen ("cakes on the stone"), pice bach ("small cakes"), cacennau cri or teisennau gradell ("griddle cakes") in Welsh, or bakestones or griddle cakes in English.
Traditionally cooked on a cast iron bakestone (maen) suspended over the fire or cooker, Welsh cakes are a classic example of domestic baking before ovens were universal in homes.
Our wholemeal naked barley flour is stone-milled in small batches through our mill in Suffolk, from barley grown by Jeremy Dickin at Oak Farm in Lincolnshire.
Naked barleys are varieties of barley, Hordeum vulgare, that naturally shed the grain's inedible husk when harvested so that the whole grain can be milled or eaten without losing any of the flavour or nutrition.

Enjoy this 'not too sweet' lemon and poppy seed loaf cake created by Tereza Pospíšilová.
This dish combines subtly fruity, savoury, sweet and acidic flavours, all in one. Inspired by the classic Syrian red pepper dip muhammara, it's best paired with crunchy fresh veg and flatbreads.
This simple vegan dish pairs our creamy white coco beans with a punchy wild garlic pesto. If you haven’t tried brothy beans, you’re missing out on one of the simplest, most comforting and nutritious dishes out there: creamy beans served in their own rich, delicious stock, usually with fresh herbs to add brightness.
