Australia's most famous children's cake book - reprinted in a collector's edition. The Australian Women's Weekly's Children's Birthday Cake Book was first published in 1980 and has sold more than half a million copies. In response to all the requests we have had, often from mothers who remember fondly all the cakes from their own childhood, we have taken this book from our archives and reprinted it 30 years after it first appeared. We have had to make a minor change - four of your little friends are missing, but they've been replaced by other cakes you'll love just as much. Apart from that we've left it just as it was - a true collectors' cookbook especially for you. Now you can recreate your favourite cakes - the swimming pool, rocket and that train from the cover for your own child.

Who doesn't like to hover over a cake stall at markets, fetes, voting places on election day or even just a street stall run for a local charity? As long as the items on sale are homemade, a cake stall is like a magnet for those of us who love oldfashioned cakes and preserves made with loving care in someone's kitchen. Here there are treats to take home to Mum, perhaps for Mother's Day, or as a Saturday afternoon surprise, there are traditional cakes and biscuits from grandma's kitchen, kid's treats such as toffee apples, Christmas puddings and cakes, and lots of preserves - jams, pickles and chutneys.
