Book description
Foreword by Gary Rhodes. Here is a book full of delicious, simple
cake recipes that are much kinder to teeth! Free from regular sugar,
the cakes are made with xylitol, also known as birch sugar. Xylitol is
a natural substance made from birch bark which has a cariostatic
effect that actively inhibits tooth decay. Written in consultation
with a qualified dentist, this book is ideal for those baking for (and
with) young children; and for anyone who loves cakes and baking but is
concerned about caring for their teeth. Light-hearted and fun, yet
extremely practical, this little volume is packed full of recipes.
They range from expected old favourites such as Fairy Cakes and
Butterfly Cakes to the more unusual Marigold Buns, Scented Geranium
Cakes, and Courgette Cakes. There are also plenty of tips from the
Tooth Fairy on tooth care and even an 'Ask the Tooth Fairy' section
which covers intriguing questions such as 'what do the fairies do with
all those teeth?'
Sue Simkins is the author of Cooking with Mrs Simkins and Tea
with Mrs Simkins.
