Agnes was one of the most prolific culinary genius’ of the nineteenth century – author, inventor, entrepreneur, cookery school owner, domestic agency owner, retailer, International speaker and demonstrator. I continue to have sleepless nights about her lack of legacy in this country! It is my ambition to write a screen play of her amazing life.

A pioneering figure in the world of ices, Agnes Marshall was the first person to suggest using nitrogen as a freezing technique in the late 1800s. Unjustly ignored in favour of Mrs Beeton, Marshall's book gives you a plethora of workable ideas for making sorbets and ice creams that seem very modern and unusual
