Beginners & Experts - this is your book!,
By A Customer
This review is from: The Fannie Farmer Baking Book (Hardcover)
I love this baking book - it's the first I pull off the shelf when I want to bake anything from cookies to cakes to pies to breads. I first found this in a library and borrowed it to make an apple pie, my first. The instructions were fantastic, and I started with the recipe that made sense for me at that time - the basic apple pie recipe. Not only was it a great recipe to follow, but the pie turned out amazingly well and was a hit among the tasters. Once I mastered that recipe, I moved on to other recipes having gotten the basics in my back pocket.I love the cake recipes too, especially Loni Kuhn's Devil's Food Cake recpie which is amazing every time - especially served warm! This book would make a great wedding shower gift, especially combined with some basic baking tools. Sure to delight the recipient when received and even more when tested!

i love this book,
By A Customer
This review is from: The Fannie Farmer Baking Book (Hardcover)
This is the best baking book! I first purchased this book in middle school and have been using it ever since(10 years)! I've purchased other baking books but I always come back to this one. All the recipes are fabulous and all the techniques used are thoroughly explained. Although there aren't any pictures, they really aren't necessary. This book has never failed me and I treasure my copy.

Perfect baking cookbook,
By Brenda Jo Mengeling (Davis, CA USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Fannie Farmer Baking Book (Hardcover)
Every recipe I have made from this book (over 30) has worked perfectly. The directions are impeccable. I've made cakes, cookies, pies, quick breads, yeast breads, frostings and sauces from this book. Each one has worked every time. The hot fudge sauce is spectacular as are the gingersnap cookies. When I bought this book several years ago, I knew how to make chocolate chip cookies; I was not an experienced baker. I followed Ms. Cunningham's master recipes to learn how to bake, and now I have a reputation as a great baker. You can't go wrong baking with Marion Cunningham as your guide.
