The cookbook features recipes from the renowned Hummingbird Bakery, a popular American-style bakery founded by Tarek Malouf in London in 2004. Celebrated for bringing authentic American baked goods to the UK, the bakery quickly became a favorite among dessert lovers. This cookbook provides step-by-step instructions for recreating its signature treats at home, making it an essential guide for baking enthusiasts. Its release coincided with the cupcake craze of the late 2000s, helping to fuel the demand for homemade cupcakes and other confections.
