Birthdays, Valentine's Day, anniversaries . . . there are a host of occasions that you want to celebrate in style. They're often times for traditions - indeed, who hasn't felt teary-eyed if something that was part of past Christmases is missing?

That's why this luscious book is full of tips for simple preparations, together with easier recipes for old favourites as well as sumptuous new options. In addition, there are lots of smart ideas for creating stunning decorations for maximum effect with minimum effort.
