    Welsh Cakes & Singing Workshop

    Cooking and singing in Welsh!

    Dw i hoffi cacen! (I like cake!)

    Rydyn ni’n hoffi cacen! (We like cake!) Do you like cake? Then this is the perfect workshop for you!

    Join dynamic musicians Jenny M. Thomas and Dan Witton from Bush Gothic for a fun and interactive workshop where you’ll learn to cook traditional picau ar y maen (Welsh cakes) and sing some curly Welsh phrases ar yr un pryd! (at the same time!)

    In this hands-on workshop, Jenny and Dan will introduce you to the Welsh language through simple, catchy lyrics, while you work alongside a cogydd (chef) to prepare and cook your very own Welsh cakes. No previous experience with Welsh language, food, or music is needed—just a love for good company and trying new things!

    As you bake, you’ll learn Welsh phrases like:

    • “Dw i hoffi cacen!” (I like cake!)
    • “Cacennau Cymreig” (Welsh cakes)
    • “Canu’n harmoni” (Sing in harmony)
    • “Bore da!” (Good morning!)
    • “Diolch” (Thank you)

    Once the cakes are ready, you’ll enjoy singing in harmony with others before sampling the delicious Welsh cakes you helped create. It’s a perfect mix of music, food, and fun, all wrapped up in a delightful Welsh experience!
