Cake in the Time of Coronavirus

When the Coronavirus pandemic began in early 2020 and lockdown measures were introduced, no one knew how long it might last. With strict travel restrictions imposed, all but essential businesses closed and with the college where she worked also closed, Julia and her partner found themselves thrown together 24 hours a day for months on end. How would living together for so long for the first time work out? How would they fill the time? And how much would they weigh by the end of it all?

When she made a cake and posted a photo of it on social media, jokingly titling it 'Covid-19 college closure bake number one', she didn't really expect the bakes to get into double figures before college reopened and life returned to normal. But as a hot dry spring turned into a cooler, wetter summer and the pandemic carried on, the socially isolated walks and cycle rides and the baking continued.

Finding pleasure in the little things in life and amusement in the everyday, this book follows the changing attitudes and the changing seasons in a world battling against a virus that impacted everyone.

An account of the walks, the bike rides, the wildlife watching and the baking, and with over twenty delicious recipes, 'Cake in the Time of Coronavirus' will leave you feeling hungry for more.
