Oh so innocent
I have a very large stack of recipe books that I tend to glance through when I’m feeling bored with my dietary routine but generally they seem to occupy more of a ‘coffee book’ status in my house. Having three fussy young eaters on my hands now I have a much more pressing need to buy recipe books that actually work – by encouraging me not just to sight-see but to pick a recipe and blimmin’ well cook something! So it was with hopeful glee that I discovered the Innocent cookbook. I’ve been an avid consumer of Innocent products over the years, both because they taste yummy and are vege friendly but also because their philosophy and packaging are so creative and quirky. They really started a whole new vibe in personalising packaging design, making it fun as well as functional.
And now they’ve made a cookbook and it’s fab. I even made a recipe on the second day, so excited was I by it’s contents! The artwork is, as you’d expect from Innocent, jaunty and cheeky with lots of unexpected twists and turns and hidden surprises. There is so much more in here than recipes and photos though, there are interesting additions like ‘The 10 Commandments for Washing Up’ and ‘The 30 Steps to Sunday Heaven’ and even short stories to read the kids. It’s family fun focused and full to the brim of both enticing recipes and great ideas for creative things to do with fruit and vege (a must in my house!) and makes you really want to get stuck in and have a go. Oh and of course it’s beautifully designed.
Heartily, happily recommended.
