Gingerbread

Heather Whinney

The scent of ginger conjures up Christmas, and making delicious delicacies to eat and pretty, fragranced decorations for the festive season is a long-standing tradition. In her new book, Heather Whinney shows you how to make a range of gingerbread delights, from decorative garlands to a woodland wonderland scene. Budding gingerbread architects can tackle buildings from log cabins to castles, while those who merely wish to enjoy a tasty treat can find recipes for delights from biscuits to bundt cake.
