Thanks...
I have enjoyed every single day that was spent creating this book – from the initial concept to the writing, tasting and final days of photography. But it couldn’t have been done without the help of some incredible people …
Firstly, from the bottom of my heart, I would like to thank Catie Ziller for always supporting me and for being such an amazing friend – this book simply wouldn’t have happened without you. An enormous thanks also to Deirdre Rooney for her stunning photographs, which made my creations so beautiful – we had so much fun together!
I would like to thank my publisher, Marabout, for giving me the opportunity to write this book.
A big thank you goes to Kathy Steer and Claire Musters for all their editorial work and to Alice Chadwick for her great design.
To my soul sisters, you know who you are, thanks for always supporting me.
To my children, Mario, Luca and Andrea, for being so patient and for understanding that all the cakes, cupcakes and cookies in the kitchen couldn’t be eaten! To my husband, Salvatore, for giving me all the strength and support I could ever wish for and for always being available, even for those last-minute runs to buy more butter! Thank you.
A very special thank you goes to Brickett Davda for her beautiful plates, bowls and props and to The Olive Tree for their delicious food, which helped me and Deirdre get through the photo shoots.
