Thomas S. ★★★★★

I've been baking through this cookbook for two weeks and the way it layers savory notes into sweets is genuinely eye-opening, like the recipes actually teach you *why* an ingredient works. The 75 recipes cover everything from cookies to frozen desserts, so I haven't hit a boring repeat yet. My only

Ava ★★★★★

The recipe for the burnt honey custard tart alone was worth the price—it's become my new dinner-party closer. I've made five recipes so far and every single one turned out perfectly, with clear instructions that don't assume you're a pastry chef. The frozen dessert chapter is a hidden gem.

Miles ★★★★☆

The frozen dessert chapter alone was worth it — the salted caramel semifreddo set perfectly on my first try. Wish there were more photos of the finished tarts, but the flavor pairings are genuinely inventive.
