This a complete book of desserts. I have made many things out of this book and they come out very well. This book contains assortment of recipes for beginners and experts. If you want to own one book on desserts, this is it.

This is one of my favorite type of cookbooks. First off it must have originally been written for Great Britian, as the recipes include English as well as metric measurements. This book is packed with pictures, each recipe has at least one photo, and most have more showing you how to prepare the recipe. The book serves to educate with hints, tips, and information about ingredients and history on that particular type of dessert. The instructions are written clearly, and easy to follow.

This book has several sections which include several recipes from the following categories: Custards, Cheesecakes, Meringue, Fruit and Jellies, Pancakes, Pastries, Baked desserts, Sticky and steamed, gateaux and trifles, show stoppers, ice cream, and even low fat. Your sure to find something in here that will satisfy your sweet tooth.

This is a really helpful cooking book for desserts with detailed recepies for all kind of desserts. Few recepies which are difficult to prepare just by reading, are explained well with pictures. I tried few of them for the first time and they turned out to be really well. Although I wish if they could have an eleborate section on cakes rather then giving only few of them. Overall A book worth having in your collection.

This is absoultely one cookbook that everyone should own. We own the entire series and there is no other cookbook like it. There are beautiful pictures for every recipe and the recipes are very unique, interesting, and delicious. Several recipes will suggest ingredients that may be difficult or expensive to find but the recipes can also be simplified. My husband loves to cook and looooves this entire series of cookbooks. This cookbook will help any chef tap into their creativity and explore their passion for cooking and take it to a new level.
