review 1: I share these 10 favorite ingredients with authors Lewis and Poliafito, because they really are the scrummiest. The Pumpkin Almond Cake is a win-win-winner. You won't want to waste all your extra pumpkin on any other recipes. A boozy champion is the Whiskey Peach Upside-Down Cake, which deserves high acolades in the form whiskey whipped cream dollops. I am working my way up to what I see as the ultimate Baked Elements cake: the Bananas Cake, a cover-worthy cake layered with chocolate and peanut butter fillings. I own two of the Baked books and the wonderful thing about their recipes is their accessibility. Even the most complex processes and procedures contain common ingredients, and their whimsical inventiveness is still homey and warm. It's Betty Crocker goes to p... moreastry school at the Culinary Institute of America. By them all. Bake them all. Do NOT eat them all by yourself.
review 2: Haven't baked anything from this yet, but I really love the way it's set up. There were a number of recipes that had me salivating. I was surprised because I got the first Baked book out of the library several times and I couldn't ever really get excited about more than a few recipes. I wanted to like it more than I actually did. I also liked that I can skip whole sections if they feature ingredients I don't like (hello banana!). And though I hate peanut butter in my desserts, my fiance is sure happy there's a whole section on his favorite flavor. And brown butter snickerdoodles? Yeah, that's happening. less
