This collection has many more old favourites, like Sponge Kisses, Melting Moments and Cream Lilies, as well as a few savoury treats. Alexa has also included a chapter on home-made sweets so that readers will be able to stock the sweet stall at the school fair with Hokey Pokey, Ginger Ice and the very best Russian Fudge. Snippets of social history are once again included throughout as Alexa pays tribute to the women who contributed recipes to the hundreds of community cookbooks that were published over the past sixty years. Like its predecessor, this beautiful book will be essential in every baker's kitchen and a source of continuing pleasure. |

Alexa Johnston has done it again!!! Another fabulous book, the Crunchy Topped Lemon Loaf an absolute winner as are all these easy to follow receipes. Would it be too much to hope for a third book ? I have a 40years of baking and many receipe books but find myself invariably turning to " A Second Helping and Ladies a Plate ". Well done...

This is the second wonderful book by Alex Johnston. There are no repeat recies from the first book so you can add even more recipes to your repertoire. Even if you are not a baker you will become inspired to try these recipes. Everything turns our perfectly - you can just imagine your mother, aunt, grandmother and the like in their kitchens long agong whipping up these treats. A perfect gift for Christmas.You will not be disappointed!

This is an awesome addition to the first book. It's just like being back in Nana's kitchen, watching her bake. The additional historical stories with the recipes are fantastic. I'm enjoying the beautiful photographs especially the pictures of the old recipe books. Sponge drops, marshmello square, ginger slice ..... I'm off to bake! Thank you Alexa Johnstone - I love both these books.

Alexa has done it once again. This is a fantastic companion book to her first, but also a great stand-alone cookbook. I have recommended this book to all my friends.

Another wonderful baking book by Alexa Johnston. Wonderful traditional recipes - many of which bring back great memories! Lovely photos of each recipe and once again, a little narration about the history of the recipe. I think both of Alexa's baking books will become NZ classics.

This book takes you back to yesteryear when mothers and grandmothers swapped recipes from friends and neighbors. The best of that collection is represented here in another of Alexa's wonderful books. I have the first and fournd it easy to read and even easier to cook from. Do yourself a favour and buy this book!
