HOW TO BAKE - THE GREAT BRITISH BAKE OFF - LINDA COLLISTER WITH MARY BERRY AND PAUL HOLLYWOOD

10/10

I was given this book for Christmas and I love it! Have taken up bread making again and the recipes in here work perfectly. The rustic loaf is made using a method I've never come across before but it gives really tasty loaf, a little bit similar to sourdough but without days and days of faffing around.

All these lovely cake recipes make keeping the weight down even more of a challenge.

Will definitely be buying this for others. (from MrsJamJam)

This is an excellent book, the recipes are easy to follow and the results have been good upto now! I loved watching the tv programme Mary Berry always gave good tips. (from ctrevor)

If you are as addicted to the programme as I am then you won't be disappointed with this beautiful book.

It's really well laid out and everything is very clear with lots of tips and gorgeous (mouth-watering) photography. Some of the recipes are simply recipes, some offer a step-by-step guide.

The things I have made so far (all chocolate based!) have been delicious and fairly simple. I own loads of baking books - but this has already become a favourite and I'm sure I'll be buying it as a gift on a regular basis. (from CariGransnet)

As part of our preparations to get the mobile site up and running we are changing the way we do reviews to make sure they work just as well on a phone or tablet as they do on the desktop site.

This means discontinuing the old-style review pages and moving them onto the forums instead. We will also be losing the product reviews topic on the forums as we reckon it's far easier to find reviews for beauty products, say, under 'Style and beauty' or great hotels under 'Travel' than it is to trawl through reams of things that are not relevant to your search.

That bit coming soon - but for now we will be reposting all your reviews for cookbooks on this thread so that the info is still available to anyone who'd like to use it. Of course if you have others that you would like to rave/moan about do feel free to add here too.
