The earliest version of this book (which was the cookery writer
Geraldene Holt's first work) was the result of years of baking for
the WI stall in a nearby Devon market town. People soon recognised
that here was a talent for writing books that helped in the kitchen
and that here was a great collection of recipes that scored
bullseye after bullseye. Most people's copies of this have started
to fall apart after thirty years of baking. A new edition that took
into account some changes in taste and some improvements in
technique seemed to be called for. Prospect is honoured to have the
chance to publish this reworking, not least because all my children
have been brought up on its teatime treats. This is not a
picture-book with recipes, although there are some textual
embellishments. Cakes don't really need pictures, they need
reliable instructions. These are here in spades: from tray bakes to
fruit cakes, to sponges and biscuits, teacakes to scones, little
morsels for a mouthful to great big Christmas specials. There has
been a plethora of baking books of late, but this should not
detract from the success of this most reliable and intelligent of
manuals. It is not too large, it is not too small. The recipes are
laid out clearly and fall conveniently to the page (a more
important matter than most people think).
