Cattern Cake

A Cattern Cake is made of flour, ground almond, sugar, butter and egg. Cinnamon or mixed spice could be added as flavouring. Dried fruit or caraway seeds were used in some recipes. The dough was divided into twenty cakes before baking.

Lacemakers, whose patron saint is St Catherine made these cakes in late November to celebrate her feast day.
