Baking Day is an endearing collection of retro baking recipes and vintage craft ideas. This charming book captures the essence of an era when an entire day was devoted to baking - filling the cake and biscuit tins for the week ahead. How long is it since you've eaten a neenish tart, a butterfly cake, a cream bun or served afternoon tea on a tray complete with a pretty hand stitched tray cloth? All of the old fashioned recipes you remember from your childhood can be found in the pages of this book, alongside some more modern classics including friands and macarons, together with a sprinkling of lovely retro craft ideas.
