Rose's Heavenly Cakes

Categories: Cookbooks , Nonfiction

Whether you’re a baker or someone who reads cookbooks the way armchair travelers read travel guides, Rose Levy Beranbaum’s Rose’s Heavenly Cakes will transport you somewhere sweet.

Beranbaum is the author of The Cake Bible, one of the standard texts for bakers. That classic is filled with scientific detail (for those who want it) on how baking works, and filled with yummy recipes and pictures (and who doesn’t want those?) to demonstrate all of the wonderful things that cake baking science can achieve.

Rose’s Heavenly Cakes offers more of the same, beautifully precise and delicious recipes for a wide variety of cakes, cheesecakes, cupcakes, wedding cakes, and more. Some are simple and some are showstoppers that require multiple days in preparation.

Feast your eyes or feast your family! (And don’t miss Beranbaum’s wonderful cookie book, Rose’s Christmas Cookies, either.)
