Episode 1
Mairi MacRitchie is in the Highlands and islands meeting skilful home bakers with a passion for food. They share with her their favourite recipes for cakes, pies and puddings for that special occasion when guests are coming round and you need something to really impress.
In this episode Mairi samples a variety of delicious and adventurous treats from Lewis to Skye. She tries cupcakes for adult, delicate little cakes but with the added kick of gin and tonic, and decadent profiteroles filled with rich chocolate mousse. For a savoury main course she tries a venison pie filled with tender meat, cranberries and chestnuts.
From her own kitchen in Uist Mairi also makes her own recipes to impress. She makes her striking walnut cake with a brilliant-white American frosting and a meringue roulade with a crunchy almond crust filled with fresh raspberries.
