The more than 120 recipes include showstoppers like Raspberry Ripple Cheesecake and fabulously foolproof Gingerbread Men. Every recipe is simple to cook yet mouth-wateringly delicious, and this stylish book, with its pretty pastel colour-palette and pink placeholder ribbon, is signature Peyton & Byrnestylish, fun, approachable, and inspiring.
