The Ghent mast up would be about 900 years ago. In the convent of the Carmelites that underground was connected to the Counts, the Carmelites baked this cake daily. The form has been carefully treated and all of them were made on hand size.
The Bishop of Cambray Aubertus made a holy day for the people to protect them. Mastel is also called “Saint Hubert bread” (St. Hubert is the patron saint of hunters, 3th November). That day brought the people their mastellen to the early mass and those were blessed. A blessed Mastel should help against rabies (hydrophobia).
