Christine T. (St. louis, MO USA)
I bought this as a gift for my boyfriend who is in culinary studies. The pictures are amazing and the recipes are great. They are easy to follow instructions and taste great.
Public libraries strong in culinary guides will find this appealing. March 5, 2008
Midwest Book Review (Oregon, WI USA)
Pastry chef Emily Luchetti provides a fine collection of over a hundred of her own creations from her best-selling Stars Desserts and Four-Star Desserts, making this a fine 'best of' collection for any cookbook collection and for newcomers in particular. From a traditional Apple Pandowdy to Cranberry Linzertorte and Drunken Chocolate Cake, these are favorites packed with flavor and innovation, with a peppering of color photos throughout adding interest. Public libraries strong in culinary guides will find this appealing.
