Jelly with Bompas & Parr: a glorious history with spectacular recipes - Hardcover

Though the recipes are easy to follow, the wobbling dishes are spectacular; anything can be made into jelly - champagne or liquorice, for instance, and there is bubblegum vodka jelly, and another that, mildy disturbinbly, glows in the dark. --The Daily Telegraph, 4th December 2010

...a collection of wobbly recipes from a pair of performance-food artists...Bompas & Parr go on to prove the point with recipes for fruit jellies, alcoholic jellies, jellies shaped like churche, jellies that glow in the dark. There's even a jelly Christmas pudding. It's all very childish, in a good way. --The Times Review - Food Books of the Year, November 2010
