It's just sloppy. Will I actually use this?

Some cookbooks are gorgeous and interesting, but I know I'll seldom actually cook from them, either because the recipes are too complicated or the ingredients too obscure to get my hands on. The e-book of this cookbook is nicely formatted for the most part.

I'm not wild about the burgundy text for ingredients, but at least it wasn't that illegible light gray font everyone seems to be using lately Also -- and here's where the e-book edition of cookbooks can shine -- there are links within the recipes to references such as dependent recipes, sources, or notes. No more flipping pages back and forth with flour or chocolate-coasted hands. Photos are attractive and informative, often showing the finished product slice, so you can get an idea what the inside will look like. One thing I didn't quite get was the decision to put a photo on one page, only a link with the recipe title on the next, then the recipe on the next page.
The link leads to the recipe. If the photos were all in the center of the book with the links under each photo, it would make sense, but I'm missing the logic behind this. Fortunately, the recipes are very logical. Beranbaum is the queen of well-written, logical processes. The recipes are projects, not something you're going to whip out in a few minutes, so chances are I will only use this a couple times a year.
Oct 25, Ambrosia rated it it was amazing. I am a fairly experienced home baker with a teeny tiny kitchen. I absolutely love Rose's Heavenly Cakes. I have made many cakes from this cookbook and they have all been delicious with some caveats. They look impressive and gorgeous, but more importantly they taste scrumptious and not overly sweet.
Her cakes are light and tender and delicious. I love the four layer white cake with strawberry mousseline and chocolate frosting, the Karmel cake, both coconut cakes, the chocolate cake with caramel I am a fairly experienced home baker with a teeny tiny kitchen. I love the four layer white cake with strawberry mousseline and chocolate frosting, the Karmel cake, both coconut cakes, the chocolate cake with caramel ganache, the red velvet cake, the carrot cake with white chocolate cream cheese frosting.
I didn't love the layered coconut cake because it seemed a little sweet. I also didn't love the red velvet cake, but that's because I'm not a red velvet fan - I just don't think it has enough flavor. I even made a four layer cake by combining the Karmel cake and the chocolate cake, using a caramel buttercream between some lawyers from The Cake Bible and the caramel ganache.
My friends, all foodies, raved about the cake. One of my friends, who prefers pie to cake, swears by the single layer coconut cake. She asks me to make it for her, even though she doesn't usually eat cake. I've really enjoyed exploring the book, and my friends enjoy my explorations too!!! I can't wait until I can try another recipe.
Her techniques can be complex, but she gives detailed explanations. Be careful and read through the recipe carefully so you know when you need to have ingredients at room temperature, prepare certain components hours ahead of time, etc.
If you follow her directions carefully, you will create amazing cakes worthy of your best friends and loved ones. May 08, Sandra rated it it was ok Shelves: never-finished. While the cakes in this book look gorgeous, and are probably quite delicious, my first impression is that this book is for someone who has much more time and patience in the kitchen than I.
Every recipe has a ton of complicated steps, or if not complicated, then at least time-consuming.
