Summary
Bee Berrie of Bee's Bakery is on a mission to bring unique biscuits and cookies into everyone's life.
She believes the secret to great baking is to give your bakes a personal edge. Her biscuits are original, colourful, flavourful and so much fun - she has a flair for bringing classic recipes bang up to date and her recipes are easily adaptable. Whether you want a sophisticated digestive to dunk in your tea, a personalized jammie dodger to give as a gift, cookies iced with crystallized edible flowers or an inky tattooed sea salt and brown butter cookie, you'll find the recipe in this exciting book. A page of tear-out templates adds to the fun. All achievable for the home cook - with some aimed at children - and using easily sourceable ingredients, the 80 recipes will increase any baker's repertoire. Bee makes the most unique biscuits around, raising eyebrows and smiles, all in one bite.
Bee Berrie, from Aberdeenshire, trained as a microbiologist but swapped bacteria for baking in 2012. She established Bee's Bakery which hand-makes customised cookies and cakes in West London. Bee juggled a full time job in pharmaceuticals with launching her bakery - baking in the mornings before work, and delivering on her Vespa in the evenings. The bakery is known for its bold, eye-catching designs and was included in the Evening Standards Top 5 Biscuit Bakeries in London. Bee's cookies are sold in food halls, delicatessens and coffee shops across London and the south east and bakes for clients including the BBC, Harrods, Jamie Oliver, Stella McCartney, Topshop, Sky, Harvey Nichols and Microsoft.
