This review is from: Simple French Desserts (Paperback)
Recently returned from France all "fired up" to make the wonderful treats I had experienced there. Alas, I could find very few recipes for my favorites, then I happened upon this just released book and it is the answer to all my prayers. It has absolutely all of the Parisian classics, from financiers to macaroons complete with fillings! The instructions look simple and easy to read and I am most anxious to get started. I am ordering a copy for my sister tdoay. Thank you Jill O'Connor!

THIS IS GOING TO BE A CLASSIC, April 4 2000

This review is from: Simple French Desserts (Paperback)
I HAVE ALL FOUR OF JILL O'CONNORS BOOKS AND THIS IS MY FAVORITE. ANYONE INTERESTED IN FRENCH DESERTS SHOULD HAVE THIS IN THEIR COOKBOOK COLLECTION. THE INSTRUCTIONS ARE CLEAR AND NOT AT ALL INTIMIDATING. ALL OF THE ADVICE IS PRACTICAL AND THE BOOK IS SO INTERESTING! SO FAR I HAVE HAD THE CAFE AU LAIT POTS DE CREME AND THE ALMOND MADELEINES, BOTH WERE DELICIOUS. I AM MAKING THE BURNISHED ORANGE TART NEXT. GET THIS BOOK, YOU WILL LOVE IT.
