Another gorgeously witty cookbook from Hope and Greenwood - the kind you can enjoy reading even if you never cook a thing! However, so far I can personally recommend the salty Seashell Caramels, the Popcorn Espresso Macchiato Balls, the Gingerbread Latte fudge, and of course the English Almond Butter Toffee (the George Clooney of toffees). Next on my list: their Tequila Chillies...

This is a good book but I would not have purchased it if I had realised that this was a combination of previous Hope and Greenwood sweet/ chocolate books that I already have.

Just lovely, for armchair and actual cooks alike.
