THE SERIES 9 TIE-IN BOOK

More than 100 beautiful and mouth-watering sweet and savoury bakes, from Paul Hollywood, Prue Leith, and all the series 8 and 9 bakers.

As well as helpful hints, tips and tricks, and easy step-by-step instructions and photographs throughout.

On your marks, get set, BAKE!

The Great British Bake Off: Get Baking for Friends & Family will encourage and empower amateur bakers of all abilities to have a go at home, taking inspiration from The Great British Bake Off's most ambitious bakes but with simplified recipes and straightforward instructions that will enable even complete beginners to impress their nearest and dearest.

From children's birthdays and charity bake sales to celebrating with a loved one or simply enjoying a sweet treat over a cup of tea and a catch-up with a dear friend, Get Baking for Friends & Family is a celebration of all those shared moments: both in the joy of making and in the simple pleasure of indulging in something really delicious.

What readers are saying:

Gorgeous! This is the most lovely GBBO book I've got. Photos are beautiful and I am so pleased that the instructions are shorter than previous books.

Beautiful photography and has motivated me to dust off the oven gloves immediately as well as providing a perfect companion to this year's Bake Off.

So many excellent recipes, both classic and more innovative too. I can't wait to give this as a gift this Christmas.

Heartily recommend the book to aspiring and improving bakers.

Very well written, easy to follow, and also looks great on my coffee table which is a bonus. Most importantly, I want to eat all the things in the book, which is what I look for in a cookbook!

The recipes are all 5 star for me so far.

Book Hero Magic summarised reviews for this book. While it's new and still learning, it may not be perfect - your feedback is welcome! HOW HAS THIS BEEN REVIEWED?
