Love love love getting to see how your mind works, you’re so inspiring. Also it’s hysterical that you developed a NEW menu for an event after all the developing you’ve been doing. The devil works hard, but Nicola works harder

So cool to see this approach! Can't wait to start reading your book. I'm from the US but splurged on a UK edition so I could get it earlier. (I also liked the yellow cover compared to the pink haha.)

Just got your book and can’t wait to read and try the recipes! Also I really want to make the Pistachio, Elderflower & Yuzu Choux here but it’s extremely difficult to find elderflower where I am. What could be a substitute? Could I potentially use a elderflower syrup, or perhaps another flower like chrysanthemum?

Thank you!

hiya! Yessss, you can use elderflower cordial. It will be more tangy, but you can add it to double cream and whip it. OR use it in the whipped ganache. Try about 10%.

Love this! Is there any chance we’d be able to get our hands on the “custard” recipe from the custard slice? Including the addition of double cream… i.e. how much…? Thank youuu♥️

Oh my goodness, you are such an amazing and inventive cook! Very very rarely would I make up a recipe, and definitely not with baking, relying totally on people like yourself. Other than having Elderflower Tonic Water which has quite an unusual flavour, I have not seen it anywhere to purchase, and I can’t believe how often I have seen it used in recipes recently.

Hooray this reminded me to get my copy of SIFT! Those of us in the US have to wait until November to get our hands on it, but I'm super excited.

Love this open approach to baking. This might even turn me into a baker!
