Can't wait to start baking!
Really nice book. I'm afraid to get it dirty in the kitchen! Pages are heavy weight and most recipes include a full page size photo of the dessert. Has all the classics such as banana pudding, carrot cake, and red velvet, along with some new such as pumpkin gingersnap banana pudding and chocolate cake with peppermint buttercream.

    4.0 out of 5 stars Well done, but...
    Reviewed in the United States on September 1, 2023
    Verified Purchase
    Firstly, the book is big, well made, a beautiful picture on the cover that is actually textured with smooth nearly flat outlines of the decorations on the cake. The pages are not cheap and the font is acceptably sized in my opinion. Not to mention the fact that there are pictures for everything.
    My issue is the quality of said pictures. You remember tv in the 90's? That tv picture quality was about 480 to our now 1080p or 4k high definition. After 480 we got 720 picture quality in tv's and computers. Okay, still with me? This book has a few 480 but more 720 quality pictures. The picture of the chocolate cake with caramel drizzle is so color saturated the cake looks black, and not in a good deep dark chocolate way. The picture of the chocolate cupcakes are also very dark and dull. The paper here seems to have a semi-sheen on it which is nice, but I think gloss pages would have been nicer. I'm just surprised that the picture quality isn't hd. But like I said most of the pictures are more 720 quality and I appreciate that.
