3.0 out of 5 stars Recipes are basic; no photos, June 2, 2001

By A Customer

This review is from: Nancy's Candy Cookbook: How to Make Candy at Home the Easy Way (Paperback)

This book is ok. The recipes aren't spectacular; you've probably already come across most of them because of how commmon they are. But they are good. There are no photos in the book; only little pictures. And I didn't understand why it costs ($) when it resembles a book you might have made using your own computer printer, some plain white paper, and color ink.
