On Tuesday I posted to Anne and Andy Parry at Felin Ganol watermill these 4 sourdough loaves made with Tybalt flour, a Welsh flour, for the royal visit to the mill by the Prince of Wales. Anne had a display of various baked goods using her flour and apparently Prince Charles made a bee-line for my loaf, the top one, picked it up and asked if he could take it home with him.
There’s a photo of Prince Charles standing next to Andy picking up my loaf on ITV News Wales site here.
Maybe he’s having toast this morning with his Duchy marmalade.
More details of the Prince’s visit to the area with more photos at the mill here.

Wow.. before long you won’t associate with the likes of us! That bread looks amazing and no wonder he chose yours!
I’m delighted if the PoW has joined the lucky few to have sampled your bread and I look forward to the almost inevitable issue of your Royal Warrant!
