They advise against it, but I do it anyway!



I have a confession to make, I have a tendancy to choose a book by its cover. I know it's terrible but I love pretty books, I like the way they look on my shelves and I especially love poring over the lovely photos inside baking books...yes, I love food porn.
Here are some pretty books about baking that I haven't read yet, but based purely on aesthetics I think they are cute. I cannot vouch for the quality of recipes inside.

From the top:
Ladies, A Plate- from Penguin Books
Afternoon Tea- from frankie.com
i heart macarons- from Fred Flare

  3. Ladies, A Plate is a terrific book. It has some lovely stuff in it! & nice info that goes along with the recipes that the author included. Makes it interesting too... Borrow from library first to give it a look!
