Very tasty book! February 17, 2003
14 out of 14 found this review helpful
I live in the same town as this author, and have experienced first-hand her delectible creations. Not only are these recipes extraordinary, they are makable and edible. True gourmet without requiring ingredients from unknown Mediterranean villages. It is very difficult to bake at 7000+ feet, and these work (each recipe has altitude instructions if necessary). Amazingly, I emailed Letty for help with cream puffs (not in the book; mine were collapsing--not only did she return my email, she offered to taste-test them. Top notch chef, person, book. If live at altitude and love refined sugar, you need this book. Wherever you live, this book will not disappoint.

Not only are the recipes wonderful, directions for the appropriate adjustments to make for high altitude are given--and they work!

I bought this book for my mother as a gift. Before she even made her first dessert, she read the book cover to cover. She said she enjoyed the friendly manner in which it was written. My mother has been baking for 35 years so I trust her judgment. She has told me it's the best dessert cookbook she's ever seen. Highly recommended as a gift.

An Exquisite Book! The photos,layout,recipe format are superb. The recipes are easy to follow and explicit. The chapter at the end is most helpful. I have recommended this to several others. A very successful undertaking, Lettie. Congratulations to you and Robbie

In addition to being a beautiful book, it is packed full of fun and great tastes. We are using the Chocolate Snowball recipe (individual servings) as the finishing touch on a special New Year's Eve dinner for 100. According to my partner, Letty Halloran Flatt has caught the spirit of the skier/baker, which most can only aspire to. Congratulations, Letty - it's a hit!
