Author : B.B.C. "Good Food Magazine"Binding : PaperbackEAN : 9780563522928ISBN : 0563522925Label : BBC BooksManufacturer : BBC BooksNumber of pages : 216Publication date : 2006-02-16Publisher : BBC BooksTitle : 101 Tempting Desserts: Tried-and-tested Recipes (Good Food 101)Languages : ArrayStudio : BBC Books This book should really be called '101 Fruit Dessets' - the majority of receipes use fresh fruit and had I known this, I would not have purchased it!
I'm a big fan of the 101 series as the recipes really do work and the books are a real bargain considering what you get! However, unless you're after a book of fruit desserts, I would say buy 101 Chocolate Treats or 101 Cakes & Bakes both of which have an enormous variety of cakes, biscuits and indulgent desserts to try!
As someone who always looks forward to receiving Good Food magazine, I have to say that I am very disappointed in this book's content. There are no particularly "new" recipes as it is comprised mainly of dessert recipes which have already appeared in past issues of Good Food. My hopes of "spectacular" endings for dinner party menus which I felt entitled to expect from Good Food have been dashed.
This book is going to be useful for years to come! Ranging from the simple to the more intricate dessert, this book has something for everyone and something for all seasons. The raspberry amaretti cake was polished off in double quick time here: it looked impressive but was really simple to make!
