The giving of lovespoons dates back to the 17th Century. Traditionally, they we given by young men to young ladies in the hope that they would lead to courtship or engagement. If the young lady accepted the spoon she was accepting the young man's interest.
Siwd Mae! If you know anything about Wales you would have surely heard about our famous lovespoons, not only a historical token of love but in our eyes, a modern symbol of strength and togetherness in a complicated world. Welsh Love Spoons are a traditional symbol of love and affection that have been handed down from generation to generation in Wales. These hand-carved wooden spoons were originally given as gifts to sweethearts and were thought to bring good luck and prosperity to the recipient.
Literally, plate cake this is a lovely moist light fruit cake that was traditionally cooked on a plate. Not terribly dissimilar to the little Welsh Cakes I make, this is a lovely cutting cake to make when you are expecting company. It’s a very light cake so it won’t keep as long as a Bara Brith, but is still a lovely teatime treat and very simple to make. Like Bara Brith, there are very many versions of this recipe, some use lard, some include sour cream you can take your pick! The version I use is : 6oz butter 10oz plain flour 2tsp baking powder Pinch salt ½ tsp mixed spice 6oz caster sugar 6oz mixed dried fruit 3 large eggs Firstly grease and line the bottom of a 7” sandwich tin and preheat your oven to 190oC / 375oF / gas mark 5. Sieve together the flour, baking powder, salt and mixed spice add the butter and mix until it resembles fine breadcrumbs – I stuck it all in the stand mixer to do this! Add the sugar and fruit and mix together. Beat the eggs and add them, a little at a time (if the mixture seems dry add a little milk). Turn the mixture out into your sandwich tin and bake for 30 to 40 minutes, turn the oven down to 180oC / 350oF / gas mark 4 after 20 minutes. It is cooked when it is nicely browned, firm to the touch and a skewer comes out clean.

LLANGOLLEN'S INTERNATIONAL Musical Eisteddfod will lose vital arts council funding next year - leaving organisers in limbo over its future. LLANGOLLEN'S INTERNATIONAL Musical Eisteddfod will lose vital arts council funding next year - leaving organisers in limbo over its future. Organisers of the event, which attracts big names and thousands of visitors each year, have been told £57,000 of funding will be lost but they will be able to bid for a lottery funded pot of cash for festivals. Another major loser is Theatr Powys based in Llandrindod Wells. It received £210,940 this year, funding it will be receiving in April 2011. Powys County Council says it could leave a huge hole in arts provision in the county.
