Review

"What's better than a Sprinkles cupcake? Ummm . . . Nothing! Those yummy treats have been a celebratory tradition in my family for many years, so I am thrilled my friend Candace is sharing her delicious recipes in a cookbook (including one of my own!) so that more families can enjoy the joy of sweet celebrations!"―Reese Witherspoon

"If this book included nothing but the recipe for Sprinkles' Red Velvet Cupcakes, we'd all want a copy. But it give us so much more: cookies and casual cakes, special-occasion cakes (I can't wait to make the Peanut Butter, Pretzel & Banana Cake), pies, tarts, puddings, and enough frosting recipes to keep us happy for a long time. And every recipe has Sprinkles' hallmark style, that wonderful mix of city-chic and childish delight."―Dorie Greenspan, author of Dorie's Cookies and Baking Chez Moi

"This is a must-have book for any baker or lover of sweet treats, and there are plenty of fans of the popular bakery chain who will be interested in these recipes, as well."―Booklist

"This would be a great gift for the baker in your life!"―Mom Does Reviews

"You just don't find a better baking book than this one. The book is beautifully packaged, inviting you to dive sweetly into buttercream and marshmallow and chocolate. The recipes are, surprisingly and happily, simple. But they work. And the directions are easily understood, readily followed."―Brian O'Rourke, Huffpost

"The latest must-have cookbook to hit stores."
―InStyle

"Besides practical tips, THE SPRINKLES BAKING BOOK. has beautiful photographs. The kind that inspire. The sort that motivate me to make every single one! Candace Nelson's training at Tante Marie's professional pastry program in San Francisco is evident. Her explanations of how to make divine desserts are clear. She is an expert. No wonder her opinion on Food Network's Cupcake Wars was revered."―Sunday Suppers

Erroneous recipes. Disappointing waste of money.

Reviewed in the United States on September 24, 2018

Verified Purchase

Like the other reviewers who rated this book with 1 star, I found 4 out of 5 recipes to be wrong. All of the frosting recipes are off. I made 2 cupcakes, 1 cake, 1 pudding and the caramels. The only thing I made that came out well was the sea salt caramels. I've been baking for years and have never had this much trouble with frosting. If you want to protect your recipes, then don't publish fake ones. Just don't publish them at all. It is really misleading to customers to publish bad recipes. All you are doing is losing customers, like me. And in regards to the pretty photos, am I the only one who thinks its odd that in several photos Candace Nelson is posed in evening gowns next to the desserts? In one photo, her dress is even see-through, by her profile. Is this the tone she wants to strike with (likely) a predominantly-female audience? I'm confused. Will not be using this book again and would never recommend to friends.

These cannot be her recipes :(

I love, love, love Sprinkles cupcakes. The strawberry cupcakes are my absolute favorite. I bought this book just for that recipe. Unfortunately, the cupcakes are NOTHING like the ones you'd get at a Sprinkles shop. I have a lot of baking experience, I don't think it is my skillset. I am wondering if Candace Nelson is actually using her real recipes. I would NOT recomend this book if you are hoping for the real deal. Very disappointed. In fact, I'll be donating my book to the nearest Goodwill.

Do not bother with this book, they are not anything at all like real sprinkles cupcakes, to be honest they werent even good n I followed the recipes exactly. I made the butterscotch milk chocolate bars, the red velvet cupcakes, the peanut butter chocolate chip cupcakes, and I made a carrot cake instead of cupcakes. They all came out dry as all hell. The red velvet cupcakes didn't come red n looked like chocolate. The peanut butter cupcakes had the weirdest texture, and the carrot cake came out bland n disappointing. I'm so mad and disappointed. Beware of this hopeless book.

Good cookbook

Reviewed in the United States on July 25, 2018

I Really like this cookbook. Nice and easy recipes to follow. I've tried the chocolate chip cookies (amazing) and the Julia Roberts banana hemp muffins. Also very good. My only issue is the measurements are not in weight. Which I prefer.

**UPDATE** 8/7/2018 Ok So I am lowering it down to 3 stars now after trying one of the cake recipes. The strawberry cupcake recipe in fact. which she claims makes either 12 cupcakes or 2- 9" cakes. No way was there enough cake batter to make 2-9" cakes. there was hardly enough to make a decent size of 1-9" cake. Plus it called for a whole cup of sugar to just 1 1/2 c flour. That was very sweet. I don't know that she knows really much about home size measurements but if this is what I am in for with most of these recipes. I wont be using this book much. I am quite disappointed.

I was hoping for greatness, but only got good tasting SHRINKING cakes.

Reviewed in the United States on July 21, 2018

Verified Purchase

I wanted a cookbook with a few basic recipes; chocolate, vanilla, red velvet...and this fit the bill. The cupcake recipes make a dozen cupcakes which is good for just a family dessert. Candace also includes notes on how to turn the cupcake recipes into a cake. So far I have made the red velvet cupcakes with cream cheese frosting and they are amazing.

UPDATE: After making numerous cupcakes and cakes from the book I'm so frustrated by the way my cakes and cupcakes go flat and the cupcakes liners pull away from the cupcakes. I've googled my issues and beat the batter as little a possible, dont over bake my cakes and try to remove the cupcakes from the tins as soon as they come out of the oven. But even these 'fixes' havent solved the shrinking problem. I bake cakes and cupcakes for others and waste half of my cakes because they do not turn out acceptable to give to others. I was hoping this book simplify my recipe collection but now I have to go back to the drawing board to find successful recipes.

Cupcake heaven!

Reviewed in the United States on November 17, 2016

i can't imagine there are bigger Sprinkles fans than my family - and Sprinkles is in a cupcake class by itself... #1 in a world where every other cupcake is a distant #2. Nothing compares. Nothing.

Now, are these REALLY the Sprinkles recipes from their shops - with the finished product equaling the cupcakes folks wait in line for? After trying 4 or 5, I can say, "probably not" (or at least they don't seem to be exact in these smaller batches, without identical ingredients and equipment to their shops, if anything.)

However, are some of these recipes (3 of the 5 we've tried, so far) about the best possible things that could ever come out of your home kitchen? YES!!! (And the other two were pretty good.) Tender, moist, dreamlike cupcakes with fantastic frostings and a final product that's about 100x better than the pretty tasty cupcakes your baker friend whipped up for little Janie's 6th birthday..

The coconut cupcake recipe, alone, is worth the price of a cookbook, or three. Order some coconut extract when you order the cookbook... and thank me later... (best cupcakes you willl ever have). You may be whipping up a cupcake shop business plan after your friends rave about those.

Highly recommended!

2 gluten free recipes

Reviewed in the United States on February 18, 2020

Verified Purchase

I bought this book looking for the "secret" to the gluten free red velvet cupcakes sold in the store. I was hoping for the gluten free mix used in the store, but instead got a recommendation for a commercial brand. A bit disappointed there. Other than that, it's a beautiful book. I may try converting some of the gluten based recipes to gluten free. My book did arrive damaged, as if it were a return. Too much hassle to return it, and torn pages aren't a huge deal in this case.

I own probably a thousand cook books, about 50 just for cookies. The first 3 recipes I made from this book = Chocolate Chip, Snickerdoodles and Butterscotch/Chocolate Chip Bars were outstanding !! I have never had 3 of the first recipes from a new cookbook EVER be all winners... I really tried to talk myself out of buying another cookbook but I am so glad I did give in and bought this book. I bake for my customers, all men, so great recipes are good for my business LOL.

Not useful for European standards

Reviewed in Germany on May 10, 2020

Verified Purchase

I was so much looking forward to buying this book. When I opened it and started looking a the recipes, total disappointment. At a price of almost 25€ Mrs. Nelson’s editor has not made the effort to bring measurements to a European standard! I don’t need the book translated but, in Europe we don’t use ounces or cups, our ovens are in centigrades and operating with circulating air.
Promoting a book internationally needs a bit more effort in terms of what is the standard in other parts if the world! Shame but I can’t just bother to translate every single recipe to grams, kilos, centigrades etc.
Sensing the book back!

Fehlkauf, oder where are the cupcakes???

Reviewed in Germany on December 13, 2020

2 Sterne sind genug -wirklich! Ein „schönes“ Backbuch, allerdings auch food-pictures habe ich schon besser gesehen, ist nur für Candace Fans vielleicht was, hatte das Buch wg. Sugar Rush Series gekauft - Big Disappointment. Aber mal abgesehen davon, dass ich von der „Queen der Cupcakes“ doch ein mehr cupcake-lastiges Buch erwartet hätte, die präsentierten Cupcakes und auch die anderen Kuchen, Backwaren, etc. sehen so dürftig und lieblos aus - auf keinem Schulbazar fänden die Abnehmer. Die Rezepte sind absolut 101 und unspektakulär, dafür ist das Buch mit 26,-€ zu teuer. Bin daher weiter auf der Suche nach dem ultimativen Cupcake-Buch!
Dieses geht zurück ... gerne Tipps ☺️

Köstliche Cupcakes & mehr aus den USA

Nach einem erneuten USA Besuch wurde ich auf Sprinkles Cupcakes aufmerksam. Die weltweit erste reine Cupcake Bäckerei, da meine Sammlung an Backbüchern immer weiter wächst und ich unbedingt Sprinkles Cupcakes backen wollte, musste dieses Backbuch her. Es hat eine sehr hochwertige Aufmachung und ein tolles Design, auf über 300 Seiten findet man alles was das Backherz begehrt: die berühmten Cupcakes in jedweder denkbaren Sorte, köstliche Kuchen, Pies, Tartes, Riegel, kleine Naschereien, Desserts... Man findet für jeden Anlass das passende Rezept. Des Weiteren gibt es sehr detaillierte Informationen zu benötigten Zutaten und deren Unterschiede, Handwerkszeug usw., gerade für Anfänger eine enorme Hilfe! Candace Nelson zeigt wie man die eigenen Cupcakes mit dem Signature Sprinkles Frosting verzieren kann, eine einfache wie schöne Technik und beschreibt was ein gutes Frosting ausmacht. Es gibt ein umfangreiches Vorwort, in welchem man sehr gut erfährt wie Candace zum Backen kam und den Grundstein für Sprinkles legte, eine äußerst sympathische Frau!

Die Rezepte sind sehr detailliert und gut beschrieben, heute das erste ausprobiert: Strawberry Cupcakes, absolut gelingsicher! Wenn man sich erstmal mit der Umrechnung der US Maße in unsere metrischen Einheiten vertraut gemacht hat, macht es ebenso viel Spaß wie mit heimischen bzw. europäischen Backbüchern. Bei der Umrechnung gibt es einiges zu beachten damit das Rezept auch gelingt, aber da gibt es gute Hilfen im Netz.
Manche Zutaten mögen nicht so leicht zu beschaffen sein, da helfen aber die vielen Online Shops für amerikanische Lebensmittel sehr gut weiter.
Die Rezepte klingen nicht nur lecker sondern sind es auch. Absolut köstlich und so leicht und schnell gemacht! Auch hält sich die Süße in Grenzen, (jeder der sich über zu süße Cupcakes aus englischen oder amerikanischen Rezepten beschwert, weiß wohl nicht dass diese Süße einfach dazugehört, ist nun mal keine deutsche Erfindung und das sollte man auch wissen wenn man entsprechende Rezepte nachbackt), und ist nicht so überlagernd wie bei Kolleginnen aus der Branche.

Ich freue mich schon weitere Rezepte auszuprobieren, das Sprinkles Backbuch ist mein neuer Liebling im Regal!

Klare Kaufempfehlung, ob Anfänger oder Fortgeschritten und für jeden der Cupcakes & Co. so sehr liebt wie ich!
