5.0 out of 5 stars Cakes to die for!, 9 Feb 2006

By	Rachel Pryer (Petworth, West Sussex) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I bought this book a few months ago and have made several different cakes from it, and each one has tasted wonderful! My husband and children can't wait to see which one I've made this week and my friends say that the chocolate sponge is the nicest they've ever tasted! Easy to follow recipes with not-over-fussy ingredients. Highly recommended for those who like baking like me!

5.0 out of 5 stars Good, straight-forward baking., 13 Dec 2000

By A Customer

This review is from: Mary Berry's Ultimate Cake Book: Over 200 Classic Recipes (Paperback)

I have been using this book for years, and have never had any bad results. This book is ideal is you want to produce cakes with limited time available. Thanks to Mary's useful tip I often make large tray bakes using roasting tins lined with baking foil. Forty minutes later I have loads of cakes, ready to store in the freezer.

Having read and used Nigella Lawson's 'How to be a Domestic Goddess' book, I would have to say that I prefer this book, mainly because it is more accessible for everyday baking.

4.0 out of 5 stars Mary Berry's Ultimate Cake Book, 20 Oct 2005

By	J. McCormack "julie28069" (Glasgow, Scotland) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I bought this book in January this year. I am at the beginner end of the scale and have found it an extremely good book with good explanations and helpful tips. I am about to purchase a second copy for my nephew's Christmas present as we have done quite a few recipes from it so far, with great success. The millionaire's shortbread goes down a storm every time and is very straightforward and a new favourite is the chocolate birthday cake, very rich and gorgeous. I would highly recommend this book as the recipes do not talk down to the reader at all but at the same time do not assume that the reader has any prior experience. All recipes have been successful first time and develops confidence, especially for those like myself who are just starting out. I am about to embark on my first Christmas cake and wouldn't consider using any other recipe other than Mary Berry's.
