In Ladies, a Plate: the Collection, Alexa Johnston's two stunning books of home baking are combined to make a gorgeous deluxe edition.

Now all the joys of Cinnamon Oysters, Cream Lilies, Ginger Crunch, Meringues, Spicy Speculaas and many more traditional treats, come together in one beautiful collection.
