For anyone who loves the Great British Bake Off, how about giving them a cookery course?
|
One of the things about baking is that for many people, it's a time to link back to those hours whiled away with Mum in the kitchen, making cupcakes and other simple items. And it's creative, and fun, and you definitely get an end result (even if you don't fancy eating it) one way or another. Here are some gift ideas: For anyone who loves baking, take a look at this new book, called The Great British Bake Off: A Bake for all Seasons, available from Hive.co.uk . It's an ode to nature, with bakes created to showcase seasonal ingredients - asparagus in spring, strawberries in summer, pumpkin in autumn (what else, with Halloween on the way?!) and blood oranges in winter. There are pies, tarts, pastries, breads, loaf cakes and cakes to celebrate! The book will help you make the most of the offerings from each season.
For dog lovers who adore baking - biscuits for example! - how about this Dogs Extra Large Rectangular Caddy from Emma Bridgewater for £15.00? It will add colour to a kitchen nicely! Great for storing biscuits in - yours or the dogs!
If you're inspired by Bake Off to do some baking and cooking yourself, and love trying to do new things, why not treat yourself and a friend to a cookery or baking class? Get hands on and stuck in! Cookery class experiences provide a fun and informal way to discover new skills in the kitchen. Chocolate making, cupcake decorating, bread making, there's a range of cookery experiences available through Virgin Experience Days. Fitting things in can be very difficult for people so you could always give them a recipe book - a celebrity recipe book!
