'Charlotte and Shane were right there as this bakery craze began. They really are some of the OGs and it is reflected in these pages.' – Richard Hart

'A beautiful and transportive book that brings you right into the heart of a bakery, filled with inspiration, recipes and techniques for bakers of all levels.' – Nicola Lamb

'Scéal weaves together stories and recipes with so much heart. A book that reminds you baking is about both the people and the process.' – Ravneet Gill

'I had high expectations given the names on the cover but this cookbook still managed to blow me away. It’s meticulous, generous and quietly spectacular. This is more than a cookbook – it’s a reason to clear your weekend, dust the counter and properly learn how it’s done.' – Corinna Hardgrave, Food Writer, Irish Times

SCÉAL (the Irish for ‘story’) is one of Ireland’s leading artisan bakeries.

Nestled in the charming seaside town of Greystones, County Wicklow, it is a place where husband-and-wife team, Charlotte Leonard-Kane and Shane Palmer, specialise in the mastery of sourdough bread and the delicate artistry of pastry.

Every bite from their menu reflects the essence of Ireland, and the emphasis is always on seasonal, local produce. Celebrate the fruits of Irish summer in the Poached Rhubarb and Sweet Woodruff Danish, Blood Orange Rum Baba with Mascarpone and Strawberries and Cream Maritozzi; honour traditional recipes including Granny’s Brown Bread, Apple Crumble Tart and the Classic Chocolate Chip and Sea Salt Cookie and master occasion bakes, such as Hot Cross Buns, Christmas Pudding and Pecan Pie.
