Disappointing Shortcuts,
By Victoria Redux "Victoria" (Vancouver, BC, Canada) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Everyday Low-Carb Desserts: Over 120 Delicious Low-Carb Treats Perfect for Any Occasion (Paperback)
I am a serious baker, and was excited about the idea of a dessert book that would allow me to make guilt-free sugar-free cakes and pies. Guilt-free, yes, but that's about it. I don't mean to sound like a snob, but I'm not interested in cake recipes that call for Sweet-n-Low brand cake MIX as their main ingredient. I thought this was supposed to be a cookbook? I can get those kinds of recipes off the side of a box.
Fine if you're interested in quick and easy. Not very satisfying if you want to make from-scratch desserts with real ingredients. I'm afraid I'll be sending this back.

This review is from: Everyday Low-Carb Desserts: Over 120 Delicious Low-Carb Treats Perfect for Any Occasion (Paperback)
Instead of original recipes, many of Ms. Broihier's call for using ready made mixes, ready made cookies and ready made chocolate bars...Not my idea of a cookbook... what do I need the cookbook for? I could just bake the cake mix, eat the cookies and enjoy the chocolate as is.... the rest are pretty common.... take some heavy cream and whip it with some flavoring or other.....when she does offer some original recipes, many include non low carb items like real flour etc. Even small amounts, are not part of my ingredients any more....

Dessert Divinity!! Minus the carbs!,
By Julia "busymom" (Boston Area, MA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Everyday Low-Carb Desserts: Over 120 Delicious Low-Carb Treats Perfect for Any Occasion (Paperback)
I received this book as a early Christmas gift and WOW is it fantastic. Classic desserts and creative desserts abound in this cookbook. The recipes are easy to follow and the nutritional information is printed with each recipe. Even a novice like me can make amazing desserts. There is a section in the middle with great photographs to get you inspired. I made the truffles for the office holiday party - they got rave reviews. The low-carbers of the office were impressed. If you are missing dessert - this is the book for you. If you enjoy making and eating dessert - you cannot go wrong with this book!
