4.0 out of 5 stars good results from julie duff!, 9 Dec 2004
By lisa stocks (Portlethen, Aberdeen United Kingdom) - See all my reviews
i have made quite a lot of cakes following the receipes of julie duff, and i appreciate the history that she has provided, I certainly couldn't care less about her grammar or prose, it's the cake result that's far more interesting!
The marmalade cake is just superb, you can't just eat one slice then walk away! The dundee cake is also a winner, however, the receipe for a very old fashioned plum cake is sublime. I go on to sell my cakes at fayre's and fete's, and the comments about the plum cake are always encouraging. Fochabers gingerbread very interesting. A trusted book in my collection!

4.0 out of 5 stars Cakes for expats, 24 Aug 2004
This is a great book for recreating the cakes you remember & haven't tasted in decades - the Dundee cake & Yorkshire teacakes are pure nostalgia. Baking times are way off however & as noted by the previous reviewer the prose & grammar are irritating.

2.0 out of 5 stars Tasty , but trying, 29 Mar 2004
By A Customer
I was very much looking forward to this book as there is a definite need in these times of pre-packaged, factory-made confections to have traditional recipes gathered together and made available to a wide audience. I enjoyed having the choice of several apple cakes and comparing three gingerbread recipes (the Irish one was the best of those I tried). Julie Duff has clearly done her research in compiling the recipes from around Britain.

Sadly, the book is let down by two things - the photographs look curiously old-fashioned, and the background information to the recipes is very difficult to digest. I would suggest that this is NOT a book for your kitchen shelf if you are easily wound up by grammatical inaccuracies and irritated by poor quality prose, especially in such a relatively high-price book. Disappointing.
