Number One bestselling author of Recipes from my Mother for my Daughter and Celebrity MasterChef winner, Lisa Faulkner invites you to join her for Tea & Cake.
A regular on BBC's Saturday Kitchen, ITV's This Morning and Channel 4's Sunday Brunch, Lisa really, really loves a cup of tea. As we all know, whether it's a broken heart, a crisis at work or just 'one of those days', reaching for the kettle is halfway to making everything better. But for Lisa, it's also about setting aside a moment, whether on your own, with your best friend or even in a bigger group, and taking a few minutes to just be.
And so that's what this book is all about: delicious things to dunk, slice and eat on your tea break so that you can have the perfect cup of tea moment too. Tried and tested easy recipes for biscuits, cakes, tarts and pies - as well as fancier, pretty things for special occasions and an entire chapter devoted to all things chocolate.
From the perfect dunking biscuit, orange blossom baklava, strawberry milkshake and Earl Grey tea loaf to savoury bites, pastries and even a G & Tea cocktail, you have everything you need to sit back and enjoy Tea & Cake with Lisa Faulkner.
I find the recipes contain clear instructions and are easy to follow, and the desserts look exactly like the photos when they're baked! I got this book at the Big Bad Wolf on discount a year ago and had been trying several recipes and to my surprise, I did not expect this book to be over-delivered in terms of taste of the recipes and the looks of them. Beyond my expectations! Really happy with this purchase!
