5.0 out of 5 stars Fabulous book, fabulous results!, 25 Sep 2009
By Mrs. D. Rowland "mum of 5" (Hayle, Cornwall) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I bought this boook after developing a bit of an obsession with baking cupcakes. I wanted to try some different recipes to the standard cupcake recipes I usually used and this one caught my eye. It is fabulous! The images look fantastic and after trying out 2 recipes (chocolate and banana cupcakes and the "basic" chocolate cupcakes)I am really pleased with my purchase. Have also made the chocolate buttercream icing from the book too, which again was scrummy. There are plenty of "different" recipes that I am desperate to try out on my family and friends.

The recipes are all easy to follow, though some of them are a bit more complicated than what I've used before for cupcakes but the results are well worth the extra effort. A note about the recipes though, I followed them to the letter and got slightly different results than what the book leads you to expect (the chocolate cupcake recipe explains that the mix may resemble batter and might be easier to pour into cases from a jug rather than spoon, I found it to be very stiff actually and more like a chocolate mousse!)The result was THE BEST EVER chocolate cupcake though so I'm not worrying! Also estimations on the ammount the recipe makes varies quite a bit but generally you get more than you were expecting so who can complain! The chocolate cupcake recipe states 16 standard cakes but I got 16 very generously filled large muffin cases. The same with the banana and chocolate muffins, states 12 standard, I got 16 large muffin size.

All in all an EXCELLENT book and well worth the money. Order it now, you will not be disappointed!

5.0 out of 5 stars Best cupcake recipe book I have found, 13 Nov 2009
By A. Leckie (Buckinghamshire, England) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I was rather sceptical about buying this book as I already have a large collection of baking books but I had found it for less than half price and couldn't resist.

I bake a lot, including a lot of muffins and cupcakes, but have never found such a moist, morish cupcake as these recipes produce. The cupcakes are absolutely delicious and really varied - not just the same recipe recycled with slightly different variations and there is also a varied selection of icings to choose from including ginger fudge, marshmallow, chocolate buttercream and spiced cream cheese so you can mix and match. The cake recipes are also delicious.

The little personalised sections which explain how the bakery was initally set up and additional bits about decoration and choosing icings etc are also a really nice addition.

The only thing is, it states page numbers on the contents page but then doesn't have any page numbers though I don't mind thumbing through all the delicious recipes anyway!

All in all a really great little cupcake book that I would recommend to anyone, even those who already have decidated cupcake books as you haven't tasted anything until you've tasted these! I would even have bought this at full price. I have also been to their shop in London and it was definitely worth the trip!

5.0 out of 5 stars What a brilliant book !, 28 Sep 2009
By A. Wingate - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I'm trilled that the Primrose Bakery (the home of the best cakes in London) has finally published such a wonderful book that allows everyone to recreate their spectacular cupcakes at home. It's beautifully put together and styled and the recipes are very easy to follow (my caramel ones came out pefectly). It would make a great present for anyone who's into cooking (or just likes cakes !).
