These are pages from a library book that is living on my bedside table right now: Seasonal Baking by Fiona Cairns. I couldn't resist sharing some of the photos as I think they're beautiful.
The book includes recipes for all sorts of cakes and is divided into seasonal sections. The styling is pretty special and of course, the recipes look good too (I mean, that's a mango pavlova up there, after all.) The author made the royal wedding cake, so I'm thinking she is a British cake star.
I must admit, reading books about cakes before going to sleep is rather a guilty pleasure- once upon a time I would have rolled my eyes mightily about such an idea.
