Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)I saw Sandra Lee baking recipes from this book on a morning show this week, so I thought I'd try it out. There are gorgeous photos of every dessert, so the presentations look like they are ready for a bake sale. If you bake from scratch you may not like her shortcuts using prepared mixes and some ready made icings, BUT this book is a winner even just to learn good presentations or get ideas for your own recipes from scratch. The little details she does make her presentations beautiful.
I am not a great cook, and I need the pictures of what the final product should look like, so I love this book. Colorful, cheerful, easy for any cook, and includes baking tips to make the baked goods come out looking really irresistible.
Directions, time needed, yield, and ingredients are all laid out very simply, so you can see if you have the time and have the ingredients on hand for a recipe.
There are cookies, brownies, bars, cakes, cupcakes, fruits, candies, pies, truffles, and breads. She has a section showing "cookiescapes" and how to make small theme baskets for bake sales and holidays.
Here are just a few of the recipes I found unique: Pear & Cinnamon Charlotte, Butter Toffee Flower Sandwiches, Root Beer Cupcakes, Cream Marzipan Cake, White Chocolate Macadamia Cake, Custard Filled Cake, Plum Apricot Clafouti, Caramel Apple Muffin Melts, Triple Blueberry Pie, and Rocky Road Parfaits. Plenty for both children and adults to love!
I'm off to the kitchen. Two thumbs up from my house. This is a soft cover book, but still very nice to give as a gift.
