What a disappoinment!
I have been allergic to wheat and diary products for over 3 years now. I've always struggled to find cookery books in shops so I spend a lot of time adapting normal recipes. Imagine my delight when I searched the internet and came over a 5-star rating on a wheat and milk free cook book. I promptly ordered and recieved it. But what a disappointment. I find recipes such as Fruit Salad insulting to readers. A lot of these recipes were common-sense adaptaions of normal recipes that would not require a book at all. If you really want interesting wheat and milk free cook book try Antoinette Saville's book (that even has pictures too!)

Great ideas but terrible proof reading!
There are some lovely recipies in this book but there are also some glaring errors. I settled down to make the Date & Ginger Cake - weighed out my ingredients and then read through the method... only to find mention of ground almonds being introduced when there is no mention of them in the ingredients. I spend of my time searching the internet for alternative recipies and then ammending the book. Not worth the hassel - Antoinette Saville is so much better!

This is a fantastic book - a real godsend!
The recipes in this book are really great. I have found that I can now eat really healthy and delicious meals, avoiding everything I am allergic to. The beauty of these recipes is that they don't involve huge lists of ingredients and are really simple to cook.
