From established author and baking authority Anneka Manning comes a book that gives the reader a baking class at home. Featuring 92 sweet and savoury recipes (plus variations), teaches the reader how to bake. The book's approach is strong and simple, based on Anneka's nine essential, signature mixing techniques.

BakeClass is a reflection of this simple, yet effective, approach. BakeClass is based on teaching the reader the nine most common mixing methods through a unique series of lessons to build baking know-how and confidence. These lessons are practical, simple and approachable and are strongly supported by step-by-step photography, clear and concise instructions and Anneka's signature hints and tips.

Each lesson leads into a range of fail-safe recipes that not only use the method taught but also allow the reader to practise their new skill in a practical way, allowing them to master the technique before moving on to the next lesson and method.

BakeClass is for any home cook who wishes to develop or improve their baking ability, no matter what their current skill level. It will have relevance to more skilled bakers, who can use it to refresh and re-learn. This book can be used as a stand- alone reference, but will also provide the failsafe/foolproof base information you need when using recipes from other books, magazines and websites. As such, BakeClass will be a powerful tool in the home kitchen.
