Product Description |
|
On the corner of Bleecker and Eleventh Streets in the heart of Greenwich Village sits the Magnolia Bakery. This unassuming shop, where the smells of home-style baking weaken even the strongest will, has attracted a clientele that ranges from kids on their way home from school to celebrity glitterati. Cupcakes swirled with pastel frosting crowd the counter, and cakestands display Lemon Vanilla Bundt Cake, Apple Walnut Cake with Caramel Cream Cheese Icing, and Coconut Layer Cake, swathed in fluffy white frosting and covered in drifts of coconut. As Time Out New York says: "The secret to Magnolia's success is simple: Nobody knows how to bake like this anymore." Magnolia's owners Jennifer Appel and Allysa Torey know how, and in The Magnolia Bakery Cookbook they share their most mouth-watering recipes, from sweet breakfast treats like Dried-Cherry Crumb Buns to classic Iced Molasses Cookies, from decadently rich Caramel Pecan Brownies and Raspberry Marzipan Cheesecake to refreshing Lemon Icebox Pie. Their easy-to-follow recipes and invaluable baking hints mean that even the inexperienced baker will be able to frost the perfect layer cake, turn out the flakiest pie crust, and whip up the creamiest cheesecake. Illustrated with eight pages of glorious color photographs, The Magnolia Bakery Cookbook will inspire you to turn on the oven and create sweet memories for your family and friends. |

Magnolia Bakery must be awesome |
|
Bought this book for my sister, a competitive baker, winner of hundreds of ribbons, and an all-around great cook. She is very fussy about recipes and ingredients -- no margarine, no artificial flavors, only pure extracts, etc. I thoroughly read the recipes before I purchase any cookbook for her. She loves this book and has tried many of the recipes. They are wonderful. Not your standard baking recipes. It would be wonderful to visit the bakery and try the goodies first hand. |

Magnolia Bakery - Yum! |
|
I have baked several cakes out of this book and they are delicious. The Traditional Vanilla Birthday cake is my favourite - turns out perfectly every time. |

Okay, but I was expecting more |
|
VERY basic recipes in this one. I was expecting more based on Magnolia's reputation. Disappointing... |

no photos, no cupcakes |
|
this is a good cook book if you are looking for basic recipes. i bought this book because i love the famous magnolia cupcakes and i love the way they look. there are no cupcakes in this book and there are no photos. also, some people have commented on the lovely design of the book's pages. actually the pages are poorly designed. they look like faux granny, pretend to look old country bakery style, but actually turned out to look like someone was trying too hard while lacking typography and design skills. |

Perfect recipes for delicious goodies |
|
This cookbook has some wonderfully basic recipes that will be at the top of your list when looking for something really good to bake. My daughter has this and had baked the white birthday cake out of it for my granddaughter's birthday. It was so moist and really excellent. We use it for all birthday celebrations now. One doesn't feel special if any other cake is presented! The recipes are not difficult but the results taste like you have slaved for hours. This is a sure winner and I guarantee it will make you look great in the eyes of those you cook for. |
