Welsh cakes

Cooked on a griddle, Welsh cakes sit somewhere between scones and biscuits, and can be found all over Pembrokesh­ire. But at Mamgu Welshcakes coffee shop, the traditiona­l treat has been given a modern twist. There are 14 flavours on offer, including lemon; dark chocolate and orange; and leek and cheese. They’re sold online and in store at Mamgu’s cosy cafe in Solva. mamguwelsh­cakes.com

Sea salt

With its gin-clear water, the sheltered cove of Cwm-yr-eglwys on the Dinas Island peninsula is just the spot for hand-harvesting sea salt. Sherill Evans and Josh Wright, of Pembrokesh­ire Sea Salt, collect seawater in buckets, then filter and heat it until it crystallis­es. The larger flakes are saved for chefs across Wales, while the smaller flakes are flavoured with everything from saffron to wild garlic. pembrokesh­ireseasalt.co.uk
