Traditional gingerbread goodies are given the modern treatment in this delectable book featuring 15 projects to make, eat or display.

The pièce de résistance is Sandra's gingerbread-embellished wedding cake, which will no doubt prove a show-stopper for any budding baker.

If you're looking for some quick bakes, Sandra's got you covered as it's also packed with fun gingerbread biscuits such as sharing squares, snowflake cookies and cookie favours. Make perfect treats to slip into lunch boxes, serve up to friends at tea, give as gifts, or show off as your holiday centrepiece.

There are recipes for traditional, coloured and vegan gingerbread. All the projects included in the book are accompanied by full-size templates.
