Book description
The Great British Bake Off is a glorious celebration of
Britain's favourite pastime. As the series has shown us, baking is the
perfect way to mark an occasion - to celebrate, to congratulate and
reward, and to lift spirits.
This new book is inspired by the wonderful creations from
The Great British Bake Off 'Showstopper Challenge'. Covering
a wide range of bakes from large and small cakes, biscuits and
cookies, sweet and savoury pastry, puddings, breads and patisserie,
this book will show you how to bake beautiful, enticing recipes to wow
at every occasion.
There are dainty cupcakes for afternoon tea, quick bakes perfect for
bake sales, school fairs or coffee with friends, mouthwatering
desserts, breads and pastry recipes for lunches and dinner parties,
and some really special bakes for birthdays and festive celebrations
throughout the year.
This recipe book will show you how to make your bake extra special,
from exciting finishes using chocolate curls and ribbons and spun
sugar to simple ideas for icing, shaping and decorating, so you can
bring a touch of magic to any bake.
Great British Bake Off also includes the 'Best of the
Bake-off' - the finest recipes from the new set of Great British
Bake Off amateur bakers, and all of Mary Berry and Paul
Hollywood's Technical Challenges from the series.
If you learned How to Bake from last year's cook book,
Showstoppers will take you to the next level of skill, and
combined with a dazzling new design and superb photography, this will
be an irresistible gift for yourself or someone else.
