What’s to love:
What’s to love:
- From the opening pages detailing how to choose fruit to the ending recipes for pastry creams and glazes everything about this book reaches out to the baker in me.
- Measurements are given in weight and volume.
- The Fermented banana cake, Sweet corn pudding with blackberries and Isabel’s lemon birthday cake – are standouts in a book filled with standout recipes.
- The first recipe I made was the Sour lemon cakes (pictured below). They were so easy to put together and extremely impressive.
- Summer pudding and The lime pie that saved us are linked online for you to try now.
- This book will definitely make my best books of 2019 (best books of 2019, part 1 covered January – June releases)
