National Trust book of afternoon tea

This volume has delicious recipes for savoury and sweet treats, from sandwiches and tart to cakes, scones, macaroons, shortbreads and preserves.

Some are classic, some have a twist, such as cucumber sandwiches with minted cream cheese, toasted farmhouse bread with anchovy butter, the classic Victoria sponge, brandysnaps, cream horns or the classic scone.

Plus there's everything you need to know to brew to the perfect pot of tea (not to mention the odd cocktail and bowl of punch).
