Food writer and restaurateur Simon Wright explores the social history and culture of Welsh food. Taking a single theme in each programme, he journeys from the past to the present, examining how the Welsh have produced, cooked, eaten and related to food and surveys the most interesting developments in the current culinary scene.
In this first programme of the new series he concentrates on the subject of cake. He meets Emma Jayne Morris a world champion in the relatively new field of cake art. From her home in Cwmdare, Emma has produced edible creations ranging from a life size Indian dancer to a chocolate-pasted model of War Horse. She tells Simon how her talent is taking her across the world, exhibiting her amazing cakes and teaching others how to create their own ambitious bakes.
Simon also talks to the Welshwoman who moved to California and adapted the traditional Welsh cake for the American market and finds out how a Llandeilo bakery makes bara brith on a huge scale.
