Berwick sponge cake sits beside American sponge in Elizabeth Douglas's tidy collection, where general directions and a table of measures come before a single batter. Cakes and biscuits only, handled with a Scottish baker's economy of words. One subject, done properly, in a book that fits a coat pocket. Cream the butter and begin.

Every copy includes a printable PDF edition, a beautifully typeset book you can print, mark up in the margins, and keep on your shelf. Yours the moment you own it.
