Customer Reviews

Perfect for beginners

I love this book with its detailed instructions. I've baked many recipes from this book and almost all of them have turned out good. The only problems I faced was with the chocolate bundt cake....it was too dry for my taste and the orange-cranberry bread wasn't too good either. Other than that, I've tried their stromboli recipe, sour cream tea bread, cranberry cake, marmalade cake, honey cake, pound cake, spice cake, shortbread crust, chocolate pie, yogurt lemon muffins, pear-cranberry pie and chocolate bread pudding...and all of them turned out good.

Great cookbook

I received this cookbook for my 14th birthday. The first recipe I tried was the pinwheels. My family and friends loved them. All the recipes I have tried turned out great, but everyone's favorite was the fresh lemon bars. The recipes are easy to follow and simple to make even for a first time baker like me, and, most importantly, they taste great. The book also has large, colorful pictures of the finished creations. Each recipe gives an approximate amount of calories for the weight watchers. I would highly recommend this book.
