This is my new favourite baking book. Bourke St Bakery is a Sydney company with a few outlets in suburban Sydney. The book is divided into Breads, pastries and sweets, preceded by general information and tips on baking. I’ve made some very grown up brownies from the book, and they were fabulous. You soak prunes in brandy for 3 days before making the batter. Don’t worry, there is a non-alcoholic option if children are going to be eating them, although, frankly, I’d keep them for the grownups! There are loads of photos, and it is a very good looking book. A terrific gift for the baker you know. $69.95 Heather
