Editorial Reviews

From the Inside Flap

Cakes are the edible symbol of life's celebrations, and this comprehensive resource is a celebration of cakes and the love and artistry that go into making them. Tish Boyle, the award-winning author and editor of Chocolatier and Pastry Art & Design magazines, unlocks the secrets to baking great cakes, with nearly 200 irresistible recipes and practical guidance on ingredients, equipment, and techniques.

The Cake Book includes recipes rangingfrom pound cakes and coffee cakes tomeringue, mousse, and ice cream cakes to fillings, frostings, and more. Throughout, color and black-and-white photographs and drawings show you important techniques and spectacular end results. A difficulty rating with each recipe helps you decide which to make, depending on how much time—or ambition—you have. You'll find recipes for traditional favorites, like Deeply Dark Devil's Food Cake and Apple Cake with Maple Frosting, as well as intriguing variations, such as Jasmine and Ginger Plum Upside-Down Cake, Hazelnut Vanilla Cheesecake, and White Chocolate Strawberry Meringue Cake.

Complete with decorating tips and techniques, a troubleshooting table, and a comprehen?sive listing of sources to help you find the best equipment and ingredients, this book is an essential reference you'll always turn to, whether you're new to cake baking or are an accomplished pastry chef looking for fresh ideas, inspiration, and recipes. From simple cakes for everyday get-togethers to layered creations befitting special occasions, The Cake Book will help you bake the perfect cake every time.

From the Back Cover

"There's something magical about the process of makinga cake from scratch, a process that transforms a few simple ingredients—butter, sugar, flour, and eggs—into culinary artistry."
—Tish Boyle

4.0 out of 5 stars Best chiffon cake!
Reviewed in the United States on August 14, 2021
I made chiffon cake so far and it was the best I've baked!! So fluffy and moist with a great crumb, the measurements come in volume and weight the instructions are well written. I'm excited to bake more! I recommend it!
Update: made banana bread, the texture is so fluffy! And light on banana flavor for those who don't like bananas you have to give it a try, the flavor is not overwhelming, im loving this book!
