South Africans! I am excited to announce that our book, “A Home Baker’s Guide to Food Science” is also now available to buy from Takealot.com!
For anyone in the Netherlands, we have it available on either bol.com / Amazon.nl.
What makes this book truly special is the combination of beautiful photography, illustrations, and easy-to-understand infographics that explain the science behind baking ingredients and how they react through mixing, heat, and other baking processes.
Each chapter includes practical activities designed to guide readers step by step in developing their own products from scratch.

My book is finished, and I am planning the day it will be released in South Africa!
The “A Home Baker’s Guide to Food Science” was written by combining our previous courses from La Petite Patisserie and bringing together the many questions from my students. The book was written over four years, in between all our work, emigration, and life itself.
I am grateful for Vickie de Beer for the foreword and Natasja Branca for the illustrations. Keep an eye on the social pages for more. 🌿
In the meantime get more info about the book on Qspec.nl.
