It’s All in the Booklet –
FESTIVE FUN WITH FANNY CRADOCK
by Kevin Geddes
‘It’s all in the booklet!’ is the catchphrase most associated with the classic Fanny Cradock series, Fanny Cradock Cooks for Christmas, first broadcast in 1975, with recipes for choux pastry, advice on making miniature eclairs and glacé icing; unusual recipes for pies, pancakes, omelettes and swiss rolls using mincemeat; a traditional black plum cake plus a new ‘white’ Christmas cake. It’s All in the Booklet – Festive Fun with Fanny, provides a humorous companion to the Christmas classics, helping households to host their own Fanny Cradock-inspired Christmas soirée. With pictures from Fanny’s original 1970s photographer, Kevin Geddes guides us through each episode to ensure we have the skills and knowledge to make a Fanny Cradock feast for family and friends.
