ReviewsFilled with recipes that are within the scope of the home baker...a book that's likely to be as influential for the next generation of pastry chefs as that of her fellow Angelena Nancy Silverton., The acclaimed executive pastry chef of the Wolfgang Puck empire shares with readers the 'master' techniques that are the foundation of most classic desserts...Outstanding.
