review 1: Nick Malgieri is a legend, and his instructions have guided me through buche de noel and other seemingly complicated recipes, so I was ecstatic when this book came out. I haven't tried a single recipe that I didn't like or hasn't worked, and I appreciate some of his time-saving techniques (like a cake where he questions needing to separate the eggs, woohoo!). You can see some of the recipes in action at jennybakes.com
review 2: Nick Malgieri's recipes are always interesting. This collection is not intended to be a comprehensive guide to modern baking nor a book of simple recipes. The recipes vary from easy to quite complex. It has a lot of useful background information and outstanding photos. My one criticism is the extremely small font used for the ingredien... moret list. Introductory comments and instructions are in normal sized print. I've tried one recipe so far. The Chocolate Spice Bread was a big hit, mildly chocolate with a gingerbread like combination of spices. I'll definitely be trying more. less
