## Description

A must-have baking bible from the James Beard award-winning baker and owner of the beloved Flour bakeries in Boston. James Beard award–winning baker Joanne Chang is best known around the country for her eight acclaimed Flour bakeries in Boston. Chang has published two books based on the offerings at Flour, such as her famous sticky buns, but Pastry Love is her most personal and comprehensive baking cookbook yet. It includes 125 dessert recipes for many things she could never serve in the setting of a bakery―for example, items that are best served warm or with whipped cream on top. Nothing makes Chang happier than baking and sharing treats with others, and that passion comes through in every recipe, such as Strawberry Slab Pie, Mocha Chip Cookies, and Malted Chocolate Cake. The recipes start off easy such as Lemon Sugar Cookies and build up to showstoppers like Passion Fruit Crepe Cake, making this a treasured guide for all home bakers. The book also includes master lessons and essential baking techniques for making pastry cream, lemon curd, puff pastry, and more, all of which make this book a must-have for beginners and expert home bakers alike. *One of Food & Wine’s Essential New Cookbooks for Fall* *One of Food52’s Best Cookbooks of Fall 2019* *One of Bon Appetit’s Fall Books We’ve Been Waiting All Summer For* Master the art of pastry with Joanne Chang’s personal collection of recipes: 125 Foolproof Recipes: From simple Lemon Sugar Cookies to an impressive Passion Fruit Crepe Cake, discover desserts for every occasion―many of which have never been served at Flour. Step-by-Step Master Lessons: Confidently tackle pastry cream, lemon curd, and even puff pastry with Joanne’s clear, detailed instructions for foundational pastry skills. Baking for Every Skill Level: Whether you’re a first-time baker or a seasoned expert, find recipes that build your confidence and expand your repertoire. Cakes, Pies, Cookies & More: Explore chapters packed with breakfast pastries, afternoon pick-me-ups, easy pies, and showstopping cakes like the beloved Malted Chocolate Cake.

Review: Best Pastry Cookbook of the Decade!!! - Like the title says, it very evident that Ms. Chang loves creating and making pastries, and wants nothing more than to share that love and knowledge with her customers and readers. The background story for each recipe explains how the recipe was developed, giving full credit to the creator. This, to me, marks an individual who is not only humble, but wants to give where credit is due and bring others up along with her. She clearly knows she did not build her beloved and thriving business on her own, and her loyal team seems to have been with her for years. I’ve made about a dozen recipes thus far (Alina’s milk bread, ciabatta, chocolate chip cookie, double chocolate rye cookie, and strawberry chiffon cake to name a few) and I have yet to be disappointed. Her instructions are clear, easy to follow, and accurate. I’ve lacked in execution where more practice is needed ( in terms of presentation), but the taste is spot on. It’s made intimidating pastries seem more than approachable and do-able, and given me more confidence that if I can just get my hands on the right ingredients, I can make/bake anything. The pictures are gorgeous and the recipes are inventive, incorporating so many alternative flours, whole grains, as well as vegan and gluten free options. Since it’s been difficult to go out to bakeries during quarantine (not that there’s anything comparable to Flour Bakery where I live), it’s been so rewarding, fun, and delicious to bake from home. This book is for all levels of bakers. She provides ample instructions for the beginner to follow, but also gives easy to follow directions for more complex recipes for sophisticated pastries, making readers want to attempt them rather than shy away from. I am so impressed with how this book has inspired me to bake almost daily, making this time of isolation so much more enjoyable. You won’t regret buying this book. This is the best pastry/dessert book I’ve purchased in the last decade. You will learn so much and become super impressed with your newfound skills. Plus, if you can share any of your baked goods (provided you don’t eat it all), your friends and family will be super impressed.
Review: Wonderful recipes - This book is fabulous - clear instructions, helpful information. I would highly recommend this book to anyone who loves to bake.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Wonderful recipes

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Bake someone happy with Pastry Love
*by G***S on November 13, 2019*

Pastry Love is beautifully written, and I can tell that Joanne really put her heart into this book as she described what "pastry love" means to her: giving the pastries that little extra touch on the pastry counter for customers to think 'wow! I want that!' The photographer clearly understood that as well because each photo makes me say 'wow! I want to make that!' and I did! I've made the mixed nut whole grain biscotti, almond joy tart, almond pistachio cherry honey nougat, devil dogs, whole grain breakfast cookie, and honeycomb. I am an experienced baker and found a lot of these recipes to be excitingly new, delicious, and my coworkers are raving about the everything I bring in to share with them. The directions are clearly written with easy to follow instructions. I really like the diversity of the recipes (traditional, vegan, gluten free, whole grain) because if I didn't know that they were vegan, gf, or whole grain, I would have no idea and think that I was simply eating something decadent. I love that Joanne has created healthy recipes that absolutely do not taste "healthy" - they are quite delicious actually. This book is perfect for all levels of baking (beginner to advanced) and will elevate your skills in some way or another. I can tell my own are already growing just by trying things I've not made before because I didn't have a book that could teach me so easily that (nougat, for example) is quite doable. I haven't made the spelt croissants yet, but love the photo illustrations on the process make the process less intimidating. Pastry Love would be a wonderful addition to anyone's cookbook shelf, but the baker in your life would particularly thank you.
