Food writer, TV star, much-loved former Great British Bake Off judge and queen of baking, Mary Berry has been teaching the nation to cook for over five decades. She is the author of over 70 books including Mary Berry’s Baking BibleMary Berry at Home, Mary Makes It Easy, and her latest, Mary’s Foolproof Dinners which includes 120 new, fuss-free delicious recipes for any occasion.

Mary is Cordon-Bleu trained and now appears regularly on the nation’s best-loved cookery shows. In 2009 she was awarded the highly coveted Guild of Food Writers Lifetime Achievement Award and in 2012 she was made a CBE for her services to culinary arts. Mary lives in Buckinghamshire with her husband, Paul, and their dog, Millie, and continues to inspire thousands of people across the country to enjoy home cooking.

The Happy Foodie is a treasure trove of recipes from across Mary’s cookbooks, including our most popular recipe of all time, Mary’s failsafe classic Banana Loaf.  We also love Mary’s Ginger Treacle Traybake, Chocolate Brownies Recipe and Lemon Drizzle Cake. Plus, you can discover all of the recipes from Mary’s latest TV series, Mary’s Foolproof Dinners, here.
