Summary: A Classic!
Comment: If you only own a few cookbooks make this one of them! I bought this book years ago when I was first learning to make desserts. All sorts of crazes have come and gone since then but these desserts have never gone out of style. I have made Maida's two different chocolate mousse recipes for the same party, and let the guests pick which type they preferred, dense and deeply chocolate or lighter and creamier. Everyone had a preference! The strawberry bavarian is easy to make and a real crowd pleaser, as is the Queen of Sheba Torte. I treasure my old battered and stained copy of this book, and should buy a new copy to hold in reserve. My other absolute favorite dessert book is Classic Home Desserts by Richard Sax.

Summary: Love baking? Get this cookbook!
Comment: As someone who loves to bake, I've come to adore this cookbook. Ms. Heatter's easy to follow directions make it easy to achieve great results on recipes that can seem a bit daunting at first. She not only has great cake recipes, she also has recipes for glaceed strawberries (these are to die for!), ice cream sauces, cookies, brownies and much more. Anytime I want to bake something that will impress, this is the first book I pick up.
