The Complete Cake Book. By May Little. (T. Werner Laurie.

2s. 6d. net.)—Miss Little begins by giving some clear, general directions on the art of cake and bread making, rules for baking, clarifying butter, whipping eggs, &c. The receipts which follow are under such headings as " Plain Cakes," "Rich and Fancy Cakes," " Iceing," "Bread and Scones." We can recommend the book to people who have cakes made at home, but who also like to have a good deal of variety in them, as they will hero easily find all the advice they want.
