Modern Australian Baking
Sweet, Savoury, Seasonal & Native
In his cookbook Modern Australian Baking, Christopher Thé, founder of Blackstar Bakery and creator of 'the world's most Instagrammed cake', offers a masterclass in cakes, breads and pastries that are defined by the Australian landscape and its distinctive produce.
The book includes more than 80 sweet and savoury recipes, arranged by season, from Geraldton Wax Cheesecake with Strawberry Gum Biscuit to Saltbush Scones with Desert Lime Marmalade and Kangaroo Shepherd's Pie with Bush Tomato Relish. Chris grew up in Sydney and now runs the artisan cake shop Hearthe. His recipes are suitable for anyone who is new to this style of baking, but will also inspire more skilled cooks and bakers.
A native ingredients guide provides information on ingredients that are becoming more commonly used – such as wattle seed, lemon myrtle and lilly pilly – and how to use them. This is a cookery book intimately rooted in place, uniquely Australian, and crafted for a sustainable future.

Publishing has a diversity problem. There are less 'diverse' books being published which limits the discoverability and reach of those authors.
Representation is important. Read more about why we exist here.
An anti-racist social enterprise bookstore specialising in BIPOC books.
Only about 11% of books published are by BIPOC authors — so unless you specifically seek out books by BIPOC authors, you aren't likely to find very many of them organically. At Amplify, BIPOC authors are highlighted and celebrated. Here, they don't have to fight to be seen, and you don't have to fight to find them.
We hope that in our shop, you can discover a new favourite read, find stories that speak uniquely to you, learn about a culture outside your own (or more about your own histories), and gain a better understanding of the systems that connect us all.
