Spelt is more common in Britain and some Commonwealth countries, e.g., 'I would not say I had learnt it wrongly, but that is the way I have always spelt it.' In US American it would be-'I won't say I learned it wrong; that's the way I've always spelled it.'
I think, 'spelt' is a bit staid, but use what you prefer.
Answer
"Spelt" is considered to be the British variant, apparently, and in Australia we have followed, in general, British spelling conventions. Yet in my over 50 years reading English, I have only seen the "spelt" variant only recently, and then, only on the internet. So in Australia at least, "spelled" would be considered correct.
Confusing the issue even more is the very old grain "spelt" which is making a return in multigrain breads and health foods.
