The Baking Bible

Shop Notes:

I literally grew up learning to bake from Rose Levy Beranbaum's Cake Bible and I can honestly say it was what made me fall in love with the precise and singular act of baking.  Here, she expands her repertoire to everything from pies, custards, cakes, and cookies.  Her recipes are well-tested and accessible.  Beginner and advances can both learn a lot with this book.

From the Publisher:

The latest and most comprehensive baking book yet from best-selling author and "diva of desserts" Rose Levy Beranbaum and winner of the 2015 IACP Cookbook Award for Baking

Legendary baker Rose Levy Beranbaum is back with her most extensive "bible" yet. With all-new recipes for the best cakes, pies, tarts, cookies, candies, pastries, breads, and more, this magnum opus draws from Rose's passion and expertise in every category of baking. As is to be expected from the woman who's been called "the most meticulous cook who ever lived," each sumptuous recipe is truly foolproof with detail-oriented instructions that eliminate guesswork, "plan-aheads," ingenious tips, and highlights for success. From simple everyday crowd-pleasers (Coffee Crumb Cake Muffins, Gingersnaps, Gooseberry Crisp) to show-stopping stunners (Chocolate Hazelnut Mousse Tart, Mango Bango Cheesecake, White Christmas Peppermint Cake) to bakery-style pastries developed for the home kitchen (the famous French Kouign Amann), every recipe proves that delicious perfection is within reach for any baker.
