This is the ultimate baking book. In "Bake", Allyson Gofton has employed her years' of baking experience, to create this sumptuous baking book stacked with traditional Kiwi classics and her favourite family recipes. Chapters include: pantry essentials; substitutions - what to do when you've started baking and realise you're missing an ingredient; what went wrong - how to resurrect a baking disaster so no one will ever know; fast & furious - how to whip up a dessert for unexpected guests; and, recipes for biscuits, slices, loaves, scones, muffins, cup cakes, cakes, puddings and tarts, and yeast. This title is beautifully designed, with stunning photographs from Alan Gillard. This is an essential addition to every home cook book library. If you only buy one baking book this year, it must be "Bake".

This is a beautiful book, the introduction is lovely, the photos represent a charm that is truly divineness itself. I bought this for Mothers Day but I will be buying another copy for myself. There is good advise at the start, and excellent recipes that you will actually make. The old favorites stay the old favorites, and you don;t need to break the bank going out to find ingredients you will only use once. This is sure to be a classic baking book that you will turn to again and again. For the novice baker there is plenty of advice and wisdom contained within, I recommend it for introductory and experienced bakers alike. This book is a stunning creation!!!!
