Fat Bottom Welsh Cakes
Luxury Welsh Cakes at Forage
49 miles from Forage Farm Shop
At Forage Farm Shop & Kitchen, we are thrilled to welcome Fat Bottom Welsh Cakes as our product of the month for October. An award-winning bakery producing uniquely shaped luxury Welsh cakes. Founded in 2019 by Ben Creamer, these hand-crafted cakes are delighting customers across Wales with their flavour, quality, and quirky charm.
How Fat Bottom Welsh Cakes Began
After trying some poor-quality Welsh cakes, Ben decided to make his own. He started baking at home with just one or two flavours and selling them at local food fairs. Customers loved them.
Encouraged by the demand, he opened his own kitchen and developed the bakery’s signature and cheeky bum-shaped cakes. Since then, Fat Bottom Welsh Cakes have become synonymous with luxury, creativity, and fun.
The Philosophy: Passion Meets Craft
Every cake is made with care and a sense of joy. The team is passionate about creating great-tasting treats. They strive to deliver a welcoming experience whenever someone shops or tastes their cakes. In addition, they constantly explore ways to improve both the recipes and the production process.
What Makes Their Welsh Cakes Unique
The distinctive bum shape is the first thing customers notice. But it’s not just about looks. Every cake is handmade in small batches using:
-
Free-range eggs from local farms
-
Welsh salted butter
-
Lavender & honey sourced from nearby beekeepers
The result is a cake that’s crumbly, sweet, and perfectly balanced.
Flavours to Try
Fat Bottom Welsh Cakes offers a wide range of flavours for every season. For example:
-
Lavender & Welsh Honey: floral, fragrant, and sweet
-
Christmas Fruit: fruity, spiced, and perfect for festive celebrations
-
Pumpkin Spice: available in autumn, limited edition
-
Cranberry & Orange Chocolate: rich, seasonal, and indulgent
Each cake is hand-packed in biodegradable bags, maintaining quality control and supporting sustainability.
Sustainability & Community
Fat Bottom Welsh Cakes focuses on local, ethical sourcing. Ingredients are chosen to reduce air miles and avoid palm oil whenever possible. The bakery also supports community initiatives, including Welsh Air Ambulance fundraisers, charity golf events, local hospitals, and school fundraising projects.
The Perfect Fit at Forage
Just like Forage, Fat Bottom Welsh Cakes celebrates local, Welsh ingredients and artisan craft. Their quirky, award-winning cakes are a hit with customers who value flavour, provenance, and a sense of fun. They also share Forage’s commitment to community and local partnerships.
Beyond stocking the cakes, Ben loves engaging with customers through meet-and-greet or taster sessions, offering a personal experience that connects customers directly to the makers.
