From the author - First I must say a special thank you to my publisher, Jacqui Small, for once again giving me this fantastic opportunity to indulge my passion for baking. Thanks also to Jo Copestick for her encouragement and enthusiasm and to Lydia Halliday A big, big thank you to my team who I feel privileged to have worked with; Sarah Rock for her fantastic design and Sarka Babicka for making my cakes look beautiful, both of whom came up trumps despite a punishing schedule, as well as to my editor, Nikki Sims, who put up with my faffing, was endlessly patient and worked her magic time and again.
