excellent recipes!@ July 3, 2008 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
I baked a few pieces from this cookbook and it's excellent!! I love the pictures (I'm quite visual person) and it's rather comprehensive. The only thing is....it's probably not for the health conscious, but then most dessert recipes aren't exactly the most healthy foods, are they? Easy to follow instructions too.

The Complete Baking Cookbook has 350 recipes, from basics to updated classics. To be a good baker you must know about ingredients and equipment and the first chapter is this book has detailed information. Clearly drawn illustrations make it easy to learn techniques, such as how to roll out a pie crust. Although not every recipe has a tip, when they are included they provide helpful information. If you're a cheesecake lover be sure to try the Blue Ribbon Cheesecake. As the author of Baking Basics and Beyond, I recommend this cookbook because of the wide range of recipes and clearly written directions. Pat Sinclair
A Hands-On Cookbook For Old And New Chefs Alike! November 29, 2007 7 out of 7 found this review helpful
A very practical cookbook with an easy-to-read format that clearly show the serving size for each recipe, a brief explanation of the origins of the recipes, precise listing of all the ingredients involved, detailed listing of the instructions about how to make it and some tips you can use to make the recipe as good as it can possibly be. If you like to be held by the hand as you cook, then this is the book for you. There's even an extremely educational look at some common cooking ingredients at the beginning of the book that will make anyone a better cook.
