Can’t wait to try

"Baking At Home" has turned out to be a truly comprehensive guide for this home baker! I have only recently discovered my delight in baking and this book has shown me much about the science of baking and the techniques to achieve successful results. I highly recommend this to any aspiring home baker and as a starter textbook for any whose hearts may direct them towards professional training and employment - and enjoyment!

This book has it all from bread baking to frozen treats. The information on the purpose of ingredients in your baked products and how to incorporate them is interesting and helpful. The photos are inspirational. I actually checked this book out from the library before buying it at Amazon. I love this book.

Just got this, great information, recipes and a nice size book. I took off a star because it only tells you about puff pastry but it does not instruct on how to make it, so there are no FRENCH pastry recipes aside from the pate Choux , pate sucree dough, and some sauces, so it's for the home baker, but not limited to. The info is very detailed and easy to understand, I can use this in my training.

I'm a freshman in baking.My friend got this one for me, I'm in shanghai.I tried some of the recipes and took them to my firm. My colleges said those were the best homemade cookied they'd ever got. That really encouraged me.

...by this book. I have borrowed it from my local library several times and now I've finally bought it for myself. I love the pictures and the detailed instructions. I've tried a few of the recipes and they have all worked out very well. You simply can't go wrong with this book!

Good book with simplified daily use recipes. My wife enjoys baking and this is a book she loved owning. I would recommend this book for those who enjoy baking. Good buy for novices as well as experts
