A truly professional dessert book that vastly exceeds any other you've picked up before. Stunningly artistic creations that combine the rich, decadent textures with bright, complex flavors. The photography in this book is gorgeous, the layout is superb, and the directions are clearly geared toward professional baking (yet still accessible for the home enthusiast). Jason Licker's humor, passion and unique palate all come together to form a book that will not leave my kitchen shelf anytime soon. Highly recommended for any culinary enthusiast or professional baker looking to stun their guests with form and flavor alike.
