User Reviews about The Good Housekeeping Illustrated Book of Desserts
My grandson saw a book like it and love it so I just had to order it for him the price was great for a kid that like to bake and the book was like new if not new would buy from seller again -- good housekeeping illustrated book of desserts
I always like to see the pictures of how it should look-- this cookbook does a great job with that. Also, it seems to be a good selection of many types of desserts. -- Well illustrated cookbook
I am a self proclaimed "Dessert Queen"-I love to cook and bake, but my favorite course is dessert. I actually plan dessert before I plan anything else when having company for dinner! That being said, this is my favorite dessert cookbook, hands down. I have had it for over 10 years and actually had it spiral bound because the binding fell apart due to using it so much!
The recipes are all easy to follow, include lots of photos, which I love, and they always turn out the way the end product looks in the book. My children have made some desserts out of this book, such as Bittersweet Chocolate Torte, and been given rave reviews! I believe there is only one recipe which I have made in this book which I did not like, so far, and I think that's amazing over the course of over 10 years.
I have given friends and relatives this book because it has such a fantastic compilation of great recipes all in one place. If you love making desserts, you will not regret purchasing this book. -- Have given 4 of these cookbooks as gifts-FABULOUS recipes!
My 10 year old son brought this book home from the school library and we've had a great time trying several of the recipes. There is a big range of desserts and we've gotten lots of compliments on what he's made! -- Great cookbook - Lots of variety!
This book is the best dessert book I have ever bought. Everything is so well explain, the details about the recepies is great and the illustrations are awesome. -- The best dessert book ever
