Food and Drink : Simplifying Sugar Flowers
This book is full of some very realistic looking flowers. It can be alittle difficult to understand how to make some of the flowers at first because to make some I think you need some experience, but having said that once you have a basic understanding, if you reread how to make some of the flowers, it makes alot more sence.Some of the cutters I have found are quite difficult to find, but once you have found them, Alison makes about ten different flowers from the same design. At the end of the book you can see some of her cakes she has made from the flowers and are so realistic and beautiful. At first I thought I would never understand how to make the flowers because they looked complicated but as I said, if you reread, the instructions really ... Read More:

Food and Drink : Nancy Silverton's Pastries from the La Brea Bakery
I bought this book because I loved her previous book on sourdough breads. This one is much more approachable and many of the recipes are simple enough for inexperienced bakers. The book contains more than 150 recipes for cakes, cookies, tarts, fruit desserts, savories, morning pastries, doughnuts and much more. There's something for everyone unless you want something highly decorated. Some of the recipes I tried are Banana Puffs(tart made with puff pastry, banana and caramel), Parma Braids(croissant dough, prosciutto, parmesan), Savory Brioche Pockets(with potato, spinach and cheese)and they turned out almost as beautiful as Nancy's and tasted great. Much as I love this book, it is not perfect. For example, the recipe for Banana-Cocoa Muffins gives ... Read More:

This is a fantastically beautiful book that dismays me. I appreciate the suggested substitutions- when they're provided, but I don't understand the lack of sources. I don't understand why "caramelize" and "filo" make the glossary but "feuille de brick crepe" doesn't. Is that the wafer you find on Italian nougat? I guess so, but I have no idea where to get it.

I also don't understand the "basic recipe" selection process. I kind of think that sweet pie dough is more basic than honey-chickpea ice cream. Call me crazy. This section needs an overhaul.

For somebody as admirably obsessed with perfection as Charlie Trotter seems to be, the proofing errors and dumb editing decisions littering ... Read More:
