From Raspberry Madeleines to Rosemary Drizzle Cake and Chamomile Cakes to
Thyme-infused tarts, The Botanical Bakery is packed with delicious baking ideas that draw inspiration from the rich world of culinary plants and funghi, from herbs, spices and flowers to fruits, vegetables, mushrooms and grains.
Perfect for novice and seasoned bakers alike, these scrumptious ideas blend the art of baking with the power of plants, with both savoury and sweet recipes ranging from more-ish Indian Spiced Cornbread or Za'atar Focaccia to sweet treats such as Pandan Pineapple Upside-Down Cake, Cardamom Shortbread or Tonka Bean Brownies. The book contains a combination of brand new colour food photography alongside stunning illustrations from the renowned Kew archive.
