Alastair Hawken saved Grantham Gingerbread from disappearing into the history books when he learned that production of the cookies his town had always been famous for had ceased. Alastair began baking without a recipe, and after much experimentation, failure, refinement, and taste testing by focus groups, the product re-entered the market and became the success it is today. After a chance meeting with a fourth generation family member of William Eggleston, it was later discovered that the recipe was identical to the original! So Gingerbread friends not only in England can still enjoy the classic taste of England's oldest cookie recipe.
