I "inherited" this book from my mother on the purchase of my Panasonic bread maker. I would advise against buying it,as I have not had good results with the 10 recipes I have tried.

I bought this book for a my Mother as a Christmas present, but havng taken it to work to 'photocopy a few recipes' I realised I wanted nearly every recipe! So best to just buy my own - very well laid out book, and muffins for literally every taste, the ingrdients to muffins seem a bit strange to typical fairy cake makers, but actually still every day cornershop/supermarket ingredients... very very tasty, and my four year old now likes to eat savoury muffins, yippee...

A lovely book from Lindy Smith who is very similar in style to Debbie Brown. Nice designs, a good source of inspiration for beginners and professionals.
