  • About
‘This is a book all about technical exactitude and the search for amazing flavour. It will challenge you; it will at times confound you; but it will also reward you with desserts that are as much a work of art as they are a riot of texture and flavour.’

Well, actually it is not; that was Darren’s last book.

This one, the evocatively titled Lamingtons & Lemon Tart, is different. It’s about recipes you’ll want to cook immediately – well, perhaps after you’ve lasciviously devoured Patricia Niven’s moody pictures of Darren’s sweets in various states of dress and undress.
