I have been in search of the elusive holy grail of a recipe book for a while. You know the one, where every single recipe turns out exactly the way you want it to, every time you bake something. Well, I’ve found it, and it’s definitely a keeper.
I bought The Hummingbird Bakery Cake Days a little while back on Kindle. (It’s pretty handy to view on the iPad but I’m going to have to invest in an iPad holder. Talk about new age baking.) I’ve tried a few of their recipes now, the Chocolate cake, Apple Streusel Cake and most recently their Vanilla cupcakes. My decorating and photography on this one could use a little work, but I was in a massive rush to eat them, so you’ll have to forgive me. Next time I will use a proper lighting setup, I promise.
In any case, if there is one book I recommend to anyone who loves to bake, then this is it. There is a recipe for every occasion and quite a few of them have variations as well, which is always a bonus.
Like I said, I bought my version from Amazon for Kindle. If you want to go that route you can get it here. If however, you’d like a hard copy of the book then you can get it from Kalahari here. Happy baking.
