Yummy yum yum!, Dec 4 2009
By Celise - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: The Golden Book of Baking: Over 300 Great Recipes (Hardcover)
Every page in this book has a picture of something to make you drool. The only difficulty is deciding which recipe to try first. I'm starting with the white chocolate/raspberry muffins!If you like to bake this belongs in your library. It contains the traditional things like carrot cake and scones, but the real beauty of this book is all the more unusual recipes that you don't see just anywhere, like the plum and amaretti crunch tart or the passion fruit cupcakes.

Beautiful book, Jan 9 2010

This review is from: The Golden Book of Baking: Over 300 Great Recipes (Hardcover)
My 13 year old granddaughter picked this book for a Christmas gift. She has been inspired to learn how to bake from watching TV cooking shows and can really make things that look like the picture. She liked the format of one large color photo next to one recipe on a page. The price on Amazon was way below the book store and I bought all my books on line so I wouldn't have to carry them when shopping. They are very heavy.
