To celebrate the bakery’s tenth anniversary, this duo has written a book filled with customers’ favorite recipes. It’s packed with Cheryl and Griff’s baking know-how plus recipes for their famous Buttermilk Biscones, Old-Fashioned Cupcakes, Chocolate Bread, Cinnamon Sticky Buns, S’more Pie, Almond Crunchies, Drunk Blondies, Pinkies Chocolate Lunch-Box Treats, Rustic Cheddar Pecan Rounds, and much more. Irresistible full-color photographs of food and behind-the-scenes bakery shots will give readers a glimpse into the sweet daily life at the bakeshop. Celebrating family traditions, scratch baking, and quality ingredients, The Back in the Day Bakery Cookbook is like a down-home bake sale in a book.

“Beautifully photographed and charmingly conversational, and full of recipes I’m dying to try.” —Minneapolis Star-Tribune
“As pleasantly, cohesively stylized and visually appealing as the Days’ Savannah outpost. Drool-inducing photos featuring the impressive yet decidedly unfussy baked goods.” —Booklist

Reviews for The Back in the Day Bakery Cookbook
26 ratings1 review
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5The authors own the Back in the Day Bakery in Savannah, and this is a compilation of their recipes along with their bakery history and a bit of history about each item. Unusually, this also includes a section of savories such as a chicken and veg cobbler. The sweets look fabulous. Each page has a recipe that I want to try out, and even the most time consuming ones aren't really that complicated. I'm going to be pulling this one out repeatedly to try them.
