I would absolutely love to win the books and it is even better that they are signed. I love that Mary Berry’s recipes are simple but still bake showstopping cakes, i follow Edd Kimber’s Blog The Boy Who Bakes and i would also love to learn how to decorate cakes so that they look fantastic and professional so Ruth Clemens book would be ideal. Overall this is a fantastic addition to this brilliant hamper.
Perfect reading for those quiet times after Christmas, when the kids are back at school. No excuses for not baking with this lot to hand!
Nice selection of books!

Beautiful books!
i would love to win ..
What a great opportunity to get those signed books, thanks.
Well, I made it down South with my mums – hastily put together yesterday – Christmas cake. I really really hope she doesn’t notice it’s ‘thrown together’ look. Mind you, a six hour car journey with a swift stop at the services has me usually looking ‘hastily thrown together’ on arrival!
It is now going to spend the night in the hotel room, looking at me and telling me what an unattentive daughter I am!
Ruth, if there was a perfect candidate in need of your busy girls baking book – it’s me!!
I think this is the best prize yet! Such a great pile of amazing books
You can never have too many books about baking, and I don’t have any of these yet!

what a lovely idea for a christmas dinner party! Fab x
Oh, oops… I meant the Lemon Possets!
Trying to enter for the hamper giveaway here, it looks amazing! Wish I’d entered sooner…
And at the risk of repeating myself, still loving the blog Ruth! It’s such a treat you’re taking the time to put together all those excellent step-by-step tutorials and things for all us unknown bakers of the interweb x
These look so delicate and very festive, using the old ice cream lid top to make the template is a brilliant idea.
You can never have too many cookery books
My guests will be delighted to have this lovely dessert over the Christmas period. It looks yummy.
Brilliant collection of books. Really want to win this hamper
Books and baking. 2 things I love!
Well, this is some hamper! Who wouldn’t want all these goodies?
Love your blog and would love to win the hamper!
Thought I would try my luck as I haven’t had much this year! Sounds like a fantastic hamper to win just before Christmas! As I’ve only just started baking cakes in the last year or so all of these gifts would make my time baking that more exciting! Have used many of your recipes Ruth and still feeding my Christmas cake with booze and my nephew looked his super zingy lemon birthday cake this weekend decorated with a picture of Batman, which I painted on with food dust on black regal icing. Looking forward to finding more recipes to have a go at! Have a wonderful Christmas Ruth! X
it just gets better and better. awesome prizes

Eep. I want.
Dear Santa I really need all of these pleeeeeeaase!
I would gift these special books to my daughter
x
She loves to bake and makes the most beautiful creations in the kitchen, but really wants to better her decorating skills so these would be perfect for her
This hamper gets more awesome by the day.
Two comments from me today as I don’t want to be accused of cheating and post on the recipe page as well
Books – I’ve got a very long way to go before I catch my Mother-in-law up on the number of cookbooks I have but I do already have Mary’s book although not a signed one of course! She really is the Queen of Baking
Recipe – funnily enough the same MiL mentioned above made us our first ever lemon posset recently and it was LUSH! So that’s one going in my To Do pile
This is a schmazing prize!
Feels like there should be a song about this hamper Ruth along the lines of the 12 days of Christmas!
It looks brilliant.
Now these are seriously fantastic…..yes please :0) x
I have only got 1 of those titles in my collection – and that isn’t signed!!
Wow, what a prize-books, equipment,treats and sweets. I’d need a bigger kitchen but wouldn’t say ‘no’ if I won it all
OMG OMG OMG i would love these books!!!
This hamper gets more amazing every day!!
Oh wow
Never can have too many books on baking!
I checked out the lovely pudding but was that busy I forgot to check back to see what you put in the hamper I have just woke up thinking about it and had to come and look or I wouldn’t be able to sleep!! Signed books yay! Xx
I just love all the gifts you’ve been adding so far, I have some fabulous books on cakes that I use every week, this lot would be a real christmas present.
So addicted to books and I haven’t got any of these.
My bake off cookbook has been very lonely on the shelf, these would make the perfect companions for it
Hey Ruth,
I’ve been watching and loving your progress since ‘the great british bake off’
I actually live in Western Australia, but would love to win your prizes as I could share them with my family and then when I come for a visit in the new year bring back all the prizes!!
best wishes for the future.

Really want your book, I’m a busy girl and love cake decorating! Good luck to all!
This hamper would really make a difference to our Christmas. Please pick me. I don’t know what to say to really express how badly I’m hoping to win this. I want it so badly that I can feel it in my entire body, it’s a longing and a hope.
It would mean so much for me and my family and it’s just not for items in itself. The past year has been so tough on all of us with death and a life-threatening disease after the other. I just lost my amazing uncle and two days before his funeral my grandma got a serious cancer diagnose. Everyone is a complete mess. Cancer is a such of crazy, evil disease and seeing a loved one slowly be taken away from life is the hardest thing that I have ever had to do. The cancer killed his soul and personality long before his heart stopped beating. We all just stood there, trying to do the best we could. We did everything we could to make it more comfortable for him, but it was just not enough. The doctors had already given up on trying to save him and we were all just waiting for death in a plain boring hospital room.
I am not going to make a long and sad story, but winning this would really make a massive difference for us. You have no idea how happy we would be in that case. My entire family really needs a break from everything. Nobody have had the time or energy for preparing for Christmas. It’s just been too many other things going on. This is however the time that we need a good Christmas more than ever; to spend quality time together, be happy for a moment and regain some energy.
I would like to give my grandma some of the kitchen tools that she is longing for. She absolutely love baking (and makes the worlds best cinnamon buns) and it would help her keep her mind occupied during her treatments. My 17yr old brother would be absolutely thrilled about the coffee machine. He is always trying to convince our parents to replace the other one that (according to him) is “from the stone age”. My mum would be so happy if she got the cooking books, she always likes trying a new recipe. It would be a dream come true if I could give them all this for Christmas. Please help me, so I can help my family.
Ps. Thank you for a really good blog and cool recipes.
You can never have too many cook books (my OH would disagree! lol)
I need these cos your signed book is feeling lonely!
Cooking books! I love a good cooking book – they are my bed time reading!
