Elizabeth Raffald was an amazing woman, achieving a great many
things in a short time. She was an author, innovator, benefactor
and entrepreneur as well as a mother and a wife. From the age of 15
she was in service as a housekeeper to great families and at the
age of 30 began her career in business. She began with catering,
included a school and employment office before writing this
cookbook which contains her own original, innovative recipes,
giving us wedding cake, stock cubes, Eccles cakes and much more
that we take for granted. She gained a huge reputation for her
confectionery skills, while running shops and a coaching inn,
giving financial aid to the only newspaper in Manchester at the
time, producing the town's first ever directory in 1772, (only the
second after London), supporting several poor widows of the area,
collaborating on a book of midwifery, and having 9 children.
