Reviews

"[T]he recipes themselves are pretty airtight. Kimber, the first winner of "The Great British Bake Off," writes clearly, succinctly and descriptively. He also has a world full of bakers in mind when he offers ingredient amounts three ways, in both imperial and metric weights, as well as volume. Almost every recipe has a simply composed, enticing photo, taken by Kimber. It's just another nod that this is a book created for the readers who get to reap, and eat, the rewards of Kimber's excellent work."--Washington Post
