review 1: Mouthwatering is the least than can be said about this great book. Not only are some of the best sweets in Mexico presented, explained and deliciously photographed, but the recipes are easy to follow and understand. A couple of the sweets are a bit different than is traditional, but that's understandable as the book is geared mostly to foreign palates. More than just a cookbook, reading this book felt like I was getting a lesson on Mexican sweets from someone that not only did the research but cared about it.
review 2: I was looking for a recipe for pan dulce when I came across this book. Picked it up out of curiosity because I've never seen a book about Mexican sweets before; you always get recipes on heavy meaty dishes for Mexico. I've read through this on... morece already and it really got me excited to try making sweet tamales, which sound just really fun.I haven't managed to actually cook anything from the book yet, though. All the recipes seem like they're going to take a bit more time devotion than I really have right now. Nothing seems to require an ungodly number of ingredients, but the instructions look like something you really need to be paying attention for. Not fiddly, exactly, but definitely not a simple throw together kind of thing either. Probably the recipes don't take as long or as much attention when you've done them before, but they do look a tad daunting from a book. less
