Stacie Bakes Classic cakes and bakes for the thoroughly modern cook

Since reaching the finals in Masterchef in 2010, Stacie Stewart has launched her Beehive Bakery to critical acclaim. Her bakes and cakes have proved enormously popular at festivals and events around the country – and she is now judge and mentor for the sweet baking category on the new primetime ITV show, food.Glorious.food. This book includes all of Stacie’s most well-loved recipes, from Beehive bars to Cheesecake brownies. She gives a modern twist on traditional bakes, so there's Lemon meringue pie cake, Banana chocolate baked Alaska and White forest gâteau. There are gluten-free recipes too, including Old school Bakewell tart and an orange and almond cake. You will find tarts, cakes, biscuits, bars, puddings, breads, sweets and savoury pies. There's something to suit every occasion, with chapters ranging from Hello, Summer! and Mother’s Day & Vintage Tea to Valentine’s Day and New Year, New Baking Rules.
