Not exactly baking from scratch,
By A Customer
This review is from: Special Recipes From The Charleston Cake Lady (Paperback)
Anyone considering buying this book should be aware that a large number of its recipes call for prepared items such as cake mixes, 7up, canned chocolate syrup, canned frosting, canned pineapple and mandarin oranges, candy bars, frozen whipped topping, pudding mix, and prepared graham cracker pie crust.

New Fan,
By Linda Strickland (Atlanta, GA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Special Recipes From The Charleston Cake Lady (Paperback)
I am currently in Charleston and am stunned that not one person that I have asked all over town has ever heard of this dear lady! I just purchased her cookbook and intend to buy the other. She is a dieing breed. I went away to college 20 years ago and never moved back to the south until this year. Thanks to Mrs Pregnall (as she is my senior) I am looking forward to establishing my own group of fans for reproducing her fabulous looking, down-home, gentil and uniquely southern creations. If you are listening Mrs Pregnall, I am earnestly hoping to meet you while here and have you to personally autogragh my book. I am thankful that ladies like you are still around and that you will continue to encourage your craft, which I'm sure has very little to do with the actual ingredients that you put inside the cake....like mostly love. May the Lord bless you and keep you!

Received this new book on Friday,
By A Customer
This review is from: Special Recipes From The Charleston Cake Lady (Paperback)
I just received this new book on Friday--I also have the first book she wrote--Treasured Recipes--my goal is to make all of the cakes in both books. I currently have the Brown sugar nut in the freezer--we thought it was quite good. So far our favorite is the Chocolate Pound cake--using the Dutch chocolate and sour cream. I have also made the chocolate chip cake--for some reason my chocolate chips tended to settle to the bottom of the pan--not sure if I folded them well enough. We also made the Charleston chews---you must keep this in an airtight container or they will dry out quickly. I am going to start making the cakes in the second book this week. I personally prefer a pound cake that is quite heavy--and I have found that all of her cakes are quite light--probably due to the cake mix. All of them are very good and a delight to make. If you have any experience with the cakes--personal likes and dislikes--I would love to read about them.
