Yummy food
Im making the garlic cheese puffs. They are puff pastry with combination roast garlic goat and cream cheese with chives filling. YUM
This could become a favorite...
I have been following this author's recipes on Pinterest for a while and I'm not disappointed with the quality of the food they produce. This book would make a great gift. It is really quality work.
Love this cookbook!
I haven't actually made anything yet from this cookbook yet but his other ones are awesome so I doubt there will be any issues! I love the format of the book and the photographs are awesome! i honestly can't wait for the next one to come out!

Great book; lots of recipes from my childhood days. Clear instructions, beautiful photos.
Great collection of holiday recipes
I really liked this book. Great recipes, and even some from my childhood in Canada. Some British influences which I enjoyed, especially liked traditional recipes such as fruitcakes.
Great Book!
Phenomenal recipes from Newfoundland!
Five Stars
great recipe book, and a nice fusion of old and new Newfoundlander recipes.
Good recipes!
Bought for a Christmas gift. A lot of good recipes.
Wonderful Cookbook....
I received my cookbook today and I could not be happier with this cookbook and the author. Never heard of Rock Recipes before and was googling a recipe for a traditional dark fruitcake when the this site popped up. I was so amazed at the amount of recipes, plus it was from Canada with a Canadian author. I just had to order two of his cookbooks. Love that each recipe comes with beautiful mouth watering pictures and recipes that are easy to follow . The cookbook is layed out so perfectly. Boy I just cannot wait to start baking. This cookbook is for anyone with just amazing recipes. Now I will have order the other 2 books so I will have them all. Hope the author comes out with more books. I am so happy with my purchase !!!!
Fabulously Delicious
This is the third cook book by Barry Parsons that I have bought. I love his stories that accompany each recipe. Plus there is a picture of how the recipe should look, which I find very helpful. Now the recipes. Wonderfully delicious. Each one that I have tried, has been a hit. Nothing is too complicated either, with easy to find ingredients. I also love how the book is divided into categories. Very, very happy with this purchase.

Great value for the price; tasty, practical recipes that work
This is one of my favourite 'go-to' cookbooks. It has a good collection of usable recipes, nicely illustrated with photos. I've tried a variety of recipes provided through the Rock Recipes food blog, enough to know that I needed to buy some of the Rock Recipe cookbooks.
Give it a buy
Even though a lot of the recipes were in a previous cookbook from Barry that I had purchased or found on the website I really enjoyed this cookbook. As with his last book the photography is beautiful and very well laid out. This cookbook includes old time favorites that have been/will be used over and over again but also some newer recipes or variations of older ones that makes you want to head to the kitchen and start baking.
Traditional Newfoundland recipes as we remember them.
Excellent companion to traditional Newfoundland Christmas cooking. Few deviations from the old time recipes and blended with many childhood favorites. Goes great with the Purity Factories Christmas gift set.
Great If You Like Sweet Treats!
Nice cookbook but personally, I was looking for more savoury recipes. This book contains 3/4 desserts and sweets and 1/4 main courses/side dishes/hors d'oeuvres. However, those savoury recipes it does contain certainly look good and so do the sweet treats!
Beyond my expectations
Giving this as a Christmas gift. I was so surprised this book has beautiful picture and excellent recipes, beyond what I thought it would look like
You'll think you're in Newfoundland !!
If you're not from Newfoundland - you'll LOVE the "down home" cooking .... I think this is a great book for year round. I love Newfies - and someday (yup, on my bucket list), I'll get there to enjoy their hospitality. In the mean time, I'll pretend I'm there and cook !!
Real East Coast goodies
I like Barry's recipes. Anyone can make them, and have them turn out well with a little effort. This is full of the flavours of my childhood and I've already made a couple of them. Where else can you find a good recipe for Cherry loaf, , or Snickerdoodles?
Another winner!!!
Barry out did himself again! I have book one and two and all the recipes I've tried were delicious! What a great collection of recipes this Christmas cookbook has! Love the beautiful pictures and the step by step instructions making it simple and a joy to cook! Can't wait to start cooking! Thank you Barry and wishing you continued success!
This cookbook is a real treat!
Every recipe I tried this past Christmas was a winner. The author uses easily accessible ingredients, provides gorgeous pictures of the end product, and it's so nice to have recipes look and taste just like the pictures.
Excellent recipe books!!!
Love these recipe books!!! You can't go wrong with Newfoundland traditional recipes!!! 😋

2 thumbs up
Great product and arrived on time
This book Rocks!
This book is more than it was promised. I have made several recipes from it already. All came out perfectly. The best part of this book is it has the desserts FIRST! My kind of thinking.
Rock recipe books are all great!
Great recipes. Beautiful pictures. A book with recipes that you want to make. The cookie book is also amazing. I asked my husband to mark any recipe he liked--every page was marked!!!
I can do it!
Received this lovely book last week and will now have the difficult task of choosing which recipe to try first! The pictures are perfect, the ingredients and instructions are simple and clear.
"Make that one!"
Just received Rock Recipes Christmas!!! Calling out the recipes to my husband in the next room, "make that one and that one and that one!" It is full of memories, Tweed Squares, arrowroot cookie squares, butter and rum sauce. Going to have to get serious about my fall diet! Thanks!
Xmas Memiries
This is an amazing book with fantastic recipes for Xmas - I recognized many recipes as desserts that my Mom made - desserts that I truly loved and haven't had for years.. I will be sure to do lots of baking this Xmas with these great recipes. Thanks so much for this book. Sharon
beautiful book, pictures of all recipies
have not started to use this book yet, but will be looking for recipes to celebrate the seasons.
These are good down to earth recipes with ingredients easily accessible. Thanks for that
While I might not make ALL the recipes right away there are some I would like to try very soon on my family. Looks good to me.

OMG! best cookbook for Christmas. Love all of Rock Recipes.
Loved the book
Loved the book. Gave as Christmas gift and they also were very pleased with it. Love his recipes. Beautiful photography. Have bought 3 of these.
I bought this cookbook based on how pleased I was with Barry's other two books
I bought this cookbook based on how pleased I was with Barry's other two books, good decision! I may be biased though, one of my grandmother's was British and the other a Newfoundlander so a lot of these recipes feel very familiar to me.
Amazing
