Blog Tour - Rachel's Pudding Pantry by Caroline Roberts






Step inside Rachel's Pudding Pantry, a place where love, laughter and scrumptious bakes bring everyone together.
Primrose Farm is Rachel’s very own slice of heaven. Come rain or shine there’s always a pot of tea brewing by the Aga, the delicious aroma of freshly baked puddings, and a chorus of happy memories drifting through the kitchen.
 
But the farm is in a spot of trouble. As the daffodils spring, Rachel must plant the seeds of change if she wants to keep the farm afloat, and it’s all resting on a crazy plan. She’ll need one family cook book, her Mum Jill’s baking magic – and a reason to avoid her distractingly gorgeous neighbour, Tom . . .
 
Swapping their wellies for aprons, can Rachel and Jill bake their way into a brighter future? The proof will be in the pudding!


I loved this book! It is cosy and warm, full of family tales and local neighbourhood togetherness within the farming community. Add to this the mouth watering bakes that are described throughout the book and the result is 'Rachel's Pudding Pantry'. I have noticed that there is a Christmas book in the pipeline and I can't wait to read it.

The book is made up of very short chapters and is therefore very quick to read. There is a great cast of characters and I am really hoping that the author will return to the farm in the future to develop further storylines within the location. 

The story is about four generations of the same family, each with their own thoughts, feelings and aspirations. The book is set in a traditional farming setting and all around there are all the modern problems faced by the farmers today. It is a really good read and although there is a farming background it is predominantly about fantastic bakes!

I recommend this book to all my blog readers, but one word of warning, do not read it on an empty stomach!

Thank you to the publishers, Harper Fiction, for inviting me to take part in the blog tour and for a copy of the book in return for an honest review.
