Description
'Two Magpies Bakery is the greatest thing to happen to Suffolk this decade. Rebecca and her team make the greatest bread, the most wholesome but imaginative cakes, and have a mission to use local ingredients which inspire game-changing results. Hers is the only shop I will happily queue in. And I'll be doing the same at the bookshop when her recipes are finally published.'Emma Freud
In 2013, the award-winning and much loved Two Magpies Bakery opened its doors for the first time in a beautiful Edwardian glass-fronted shop in the unspoilt coastal town of Southwold. Since then several more branches have opened across Suffolk and Norfolk, alongside the baking school in Darsham. This book will teach you how to make all of your favourite breads, pastries and pizzas - everything from sourdough to scones, and from croissants to cardamom buns. There are also recipes for celebration cakes, and many more bakes and bars (including the famous Adnams Broadside bread pudding and lemon shortbread slice). With over 100 recipes for every level of baker, this is a book to curl up with, to cook from and to treasure until your next visit to the East Anglian coast.Author: Rebecca Bishop
