The Science of Baking

The author is really passionate and his cooking is very much for someone who puts home first. It's meant for very focused individuals who love the art and science of baking. Not something meant for dinner parties or hosting events. The book was written with the help of a chemist and it's meant for folks who are chemists and engineers looking to enhance their culinary skills. For the average person, it's a bit detailed and complex. But for the scientific mind, it makes sense and reads like an expensive textbook.

One of the best baking science books out there. Great selection of essential recipes, beautiful graphics, and actually easy to use as a quick reference without being a thousand pages long. I’ve been following Matt on Instagram for years, bought his first book, and honestly I might love this one even more. Already gifted it to a few friends who wanted to get better at baking.

I am absolutely loving this book, have been having such fun learning and trying the recipe. If you loving baking and want to up your skills, definitely get this book!

Just finished reading through the book and baking my first recipe. Great level of detail and information that is so important to know and understand, but rarely appears in other recipes. Highly recommend if you are a beginner or an intermediate baker looking to improve your foundations

ALWAYS buy Matt's books! I've been following him for a long time and he's the best! This book is amazing and will definitely be my go to for all things baking!

I am a pastry chef myself but I love having books that help me with my knowledge and expanding techniques. I very much enjoy reading the book and will be making some of this recipes soon.

Another AMAZING book from the legendary Matt Adlard. I've been a fan of Matt's recipes for many years. His first book, Bake it Better, has completely elevated by baking techniques. This book, The Science of Baking, is another insanely thorough masterpiece. Beautiful photos and drawings that go into a level of depth that most cookbooks simply skip over. However, don't let the depth fool you: this book is designed to transfer the most important knowledge and steps without a bunch of superfluous nonsense. If you truly want to become an amazing baker and try more "advanced" recipes, then buy this book now!

Excellent book. Easy to understand and clear illustrations. I am very pleased with this book.

Really really good book, extraordinary to be honest. Excatly what I need to improve my knowledge.

This is my fourth "the Science of ..." book. I love the graphics and the factoids that make learning about science interesting. The book explained in detail how cooking is a science and how winging it might cause a different result than you are expectin.

Fantastic and informative! I have always loved watching Matt’s videos - not just where he is showing the amazing parts but where he is also showing when things go wrong too and learning so much from them. This book is worth every penny. Filled with explanations and easy to follow instructions. The diagrams are clear with explanations for every step of the way. A must have book for anyone learning or wanting to advance their baking further. A load of recipes to try!

Muito bom

Met my expectations! Am enjoying all the perfectly explained information! Great addition to my cookbook collection!
