I want to thank Clarkson Potter and NetGalley for the opportunity to read an advanced copy of Mary Berry’s Baking Bible. I can see this being given to someone just getting started, either with baking or moving out on their own for the first time. Given the book is about as large a cookbook as can easily be handled I think I’d have preferred less recipes and more pictures.I'm especially interested in the very British and classic Victoria Sandwich (Sponge Cake), Banoffee Pie, The Best Scones and The Fork Cookies Recipe.

She is well known for her many television appearances, culminating in the BBC1 series Mary's Berry's Ultimate Cakes and Mary Berry at Home .
