Product Description
Review
'In Tweet Treats it will take you less time to read the recipes than it would take to pour yourself a glass of wine! This book really is the love of food pared down to its bones; simple recipes, delicately expressed ... just as you would convey a recipe i --Marco Pierre White

Format:Paperback
If there's one thing I can't stand, it's being told what to do while cooking or baking. You know what I mean - you lift a cookbook down from the shelf, open to the page you require and it hectors you, nay, insists that your hands be as cold as ice to make pastry which requires the finest of flours sifted by maidens and is only available from one obscure shop, and eggs laid by some strange practically-extinct species of hen. And how very dare you even think of leaving it in your oven for even one second over the allotted time.
But I am not here to rant, oh no. I am here to say that this little book now has pride of place with the cookery books I kept - there are scant few, and tend to be aimed at children, with concise instructions and no bossy tone - the rest ended up in the bin.
What's more, I can even see myself using this book on a regular basis, with its currently pristine pages getting spattered by sauce and ghosted by baking powder. What a fantastic idea, and why did nobody save me from school-marmish cookery writers before now? And, let me contain myself, it has superb vegetarian and vegan options - what a treat, as these can be sorely lacking in cooking compendiums. Even better, this book does not dare to presume that just because you are of the veggie/vegan persuasion that you adore all things that purport to be good for you. Halleluiah!
Beautifully laid out, easy to follow, and with recipes from celebs - admit it, who doesn't want to see what they eat? - this is a treasure of a book, and all for a good cause.
Marvellous!

This book has something for everyone: it's fun to just pick up and dip into to get a little insight into the minds of the famous, it's a great way to get simple ideas for very edible food, it's a perfect size for those who like their xmas presents easy to wrap and all the proceeds go to Doctors Without Borders who only get money through endeavours like this because they don't take money off governments so they can stay non-partisan. What are you waiting for? Buy one for yourself and 10 for friends and family!

I followed this project on Twitter and can't tell you how pleased I am to have the results in my hand. These recipes are so varied and sound so tasty - and at only 140 characters, how hard can they be, right? I defy you to find an occasion where Tweet Treats won't come to your rescue. And as all the proceeds are going to Medecins Sans Frontieres, you're doing something worthwhile AND cooking something amazing.
Go on, you're worth it!
Go on, you're worth it!

Fantastic idea and a must buy
Sometimes people get an idea, think of it, mull it over and then dismiss. I am so delighted that Jane Travers went with hers. Read more
