Book Overview: The market for luxury food continually increases, fostered by powerful retail campaigns such as M&S food and the extensive media coverage of high profile chefs, on television and through book publications. Cookery programmes, book sales and the lionisation of cookery personalities highlights the popular demand to emulate high end food and create luxury at an individual level. Food is no longer functional but aesthetic and a lifestyle indicator. Thus 'Glamour Cakes' appeals to the luxury market and, using Eric Lanlard's celebrity clients as a selling point, to the ever-spiralling celebrity market. Eric's numerous television appearances include GMTV and recently BBC1's wedding series 'Big Day' as well as a forthcoming appearance on Five's 'Cooking the Books' alongside Jean-Christof Novelli and Gordon Ramsay.
