  The preparation of delicious food to share with friends and family is as much part of Christmas as enjoying the rest of the festivities. This beautifully illustrated volume is split into two parts. Section One features festive recipes including all the popular Christmas classics and for those who desire inspiration to ring the changes - perhaps for a vegetarian main course; an elegant yet simple to prepare starter; or an alternative to the rich puddings and pastries - there are recipes for mouth-watering alternatives. Recipes have been devised to ease that last-minute panic and most starters for example can be prepared in advance while a chapter on cold buffets features irresistible recipes to prepare over the holiday period from leftovers. Section Two contains recipes for irresistible edible gifts. There are luscious hand-made chocolates and miniature cakes; recipes for herb oils, fruit conserves and potted spreads packed in decorative jars; as well as recipes for sweet treats from marzipan to macaroons and marshmallows. Celebrate Christmas in style with this beautiful collection of recipes that will become part of your Christmas traditions.
