Do not flip through this on an empty stomach -- the pictures alone will likely send you to the kitchen." -- Booklist "Right off the bat, I have to start by saying that although I completed my stage at a hotel restaurant and then moved on to be a pastry chef and then an executive pastry chef, I am, at heart, a home baker." -- from the Introduction Daphna Rabinovitch has been an enthusiastic baker from her childhood right through to a distinguished career as a pastry chef.

With chapters for cookies, bars, cakes, chocolate, muffins and quick breads, and pastries, as well as smart guides to technique, ingredients and equipment, The Baker in Me will be a trusted, lasting resource in kitchens everywhere.
