Small Bakes to enjoy every day include Apricot Cornmeal Muffins; and Buttermilk Scones or for a special occasion, try indulgent Red Velvet Cupcakes.

There is no need to miss out on freshly-baked Breads and yeast doughs either – easy recipes include Perfect Pizza Dough; Cinnamon and Raisin Bagels; and Sunshine Cornbread.

Fantastic sweet and savoury recipes using gluten-free Pastry include Chocolate and Raspberry Profiteroles; Blueberry Millefeuille; and Brie and Onion Tartlets.

Finally, delicious Desserts include Baked Toffee Apple Cheesecake and Caramel Banana Cake with Rum Cream.

Also included is advice on buying and working with gluten-free ingredients and keeping a gluten-free kitchen. This book is a must for the gluten intolerant or for those who bake for gluten-intolerant family members or friends.
