Pice Bach is a traditional cookie that has its roots in Welsh cuisine, particularly popular in Wales and also recognized in other regions of the United Kingdom. This recipe has been passed down from generation to generation, and it maintains the essence of Welsh home baking thanks to its soft texture and unique flavor, where mixed spices and raisins provide a special touch.
In Latin America, although it is not so common to find it under the name Pice Bach, its style of spiced cookie with dried fruits can be found in similar variations under names such as "spice cookies" or "fruit cookies". In countries with British influence like Argentina and Chile, this type of cookie is traditionally enjoyed during tea time or on special occasions.
The name "Pice Bach" comes from Welsh and literally means "small cake". Despite its simplicity, these cookies represent the rich culinary heritage of the Welsh people and their love for natural ingredients and homemade preparations, which are still appreciated around the world today.
