Product Information

Author: Hollis, B.

For fans of The Great British Baking Show and others who are sometimes puzzled by easy references in British sources to obvious touchstones such as Battenberg cake, Swiss roll, Madeira cake, bara brith, Chelsea buns, pasties, and Bakewell tart, The British Baking Book is an inspiring, informative, and winning reference that's also a very usable cookbook. And because some of the recipes Dylan shares on his wildly popular social media channels are spectacular failures, he’s thrown in a few of the most disastrously strange recipes for you to try if you dare. Friends of baking, are you sick and tired of making the same recipes again and again? We'll leave that to the recipes. A decade-by-decade cookbook that highlights the best (and a few of the worst) baking recipes from the 20th century The #1 New York Times Bestseller Queer Book Bar acknowledges the Traditional Owners of the land where we work and live. A few of Dylan’s favorites that are going to have you licking your lips and begging for more include:● 1900s Cornflake Macaroons● 1910s ANZAC Biscuits● 1930s Peanut Butter Bread● 1940s Chocolate Sauerkraut Cake● 1950s Tomato Soup Cake● 1970s Potato Chip Cookies We pay our respects to Elders past, present and emerging.
