Customer Reviews

If you have a bread maker you need this book!
This book has some great recipes that you would not imagine can be made using a bread machine. The best thing is this book is so easy to follow and gives the ingredience amounts for all size machines.Im not sure how much I would use my machine if i did not have this book.

The only Bread Machine book you will ever need!
I found this book to be absolutly brilliant. It covers the basics; how to use a bread machine;different flours, grains and other ingredients. Superb for the beginner as well as 150 recipes for the more advanced. This book contains not only bread recipe's, but savoury breads, vegetable breads, rolls buns and pastries, teabreads and cakes. What I found to be most convienent is that the recipe's offer a selection of measuremets to suit everyone (ml/oz/cups). This is one of the best recipe books I have seen and a 'must have' for any Bread Maker Lover.

Truly the ultimate bread machine cookbook
I bought several bread recipe books when I was given my new breadmaker. Some of these other books were much more expensive, but this book by Jenny Shapter was definitely by far the best. The layout is brilliant, the introduction chapter very compressive, and the recipes are all yummy and worth trying, and they all came out perfectly via my panasonic breadmaker. The sheer size (44) and weight of the volume was surprising, especially given the price - definitely the best value for money.
