Book Reviews of Cookie Craft: From Baking to Luster Dust, Designs and Techniques for Creative Cookie Occasions
Book Review: Finally, a great modern cookie book.
Summary: 5 Stars
As a pastry chef with my own bakery, I'd been trying different sugar cookie recipes for months and couldn't find one that created the kind of blank canvas I needed. Sure they were yummy, but the dough was too sticky and the end product too chewy and crackled to decorate.
The recipes in this book create beautiful blank canvases every time -- sharp corners and points stay sharp in the oven, and the surfaces are as smooth as glass. The book is full of detailed pictures of groups of decorated cookies for every holiday and occasion -- great inspirations for me to key off of and create my own pieces of art.
Thanks for producing such a fantastic (and pretty) reference!

Summary of Cookie Craft: From Baking to Luster Dust, Designs and Techniques for Creative Cookie Occasions
Elaborately decorated cookies fill the shelves of high-end bakery cases, tempting shoppers with bright colors and whimsical shapes. The cookies are beautiful, but buying them in a bakery can be shockingly expensive, and their flavor often doesn't live up to their appearance. Now home bakers can have their pretty cookies and enjoy eating them too!Thanks to the clear instructions and practical methods developed by authors Valerie Peterson and Janice Fryer, amateur cookie crafters can achieve bakery-quality design and homemade fresh taste. Cookie Craft gives readers access to the entire world of decorated cookies, beginning with an inspirational gallery of 150 colorful cookies guaranteed to start those creative juices flowing.
The authors go on to discuss ingredients, supplies, equipment and technique. They include four delicious recipes for rolled cookie doughs (Traditional Sugar, Chocolate, Nutty, and Gingerbread) that provide perfect blank canvases for decorating, and, of course, their recipe for versatile Royal Icing.
In the most important section, they share the design techniques accumulated and perfected during hundreds of afternoons spent crafting thousands of cookies. Cookie crafters will learn how to pipe, flood, and sugar their cookies, how to design color palettes that work with every season, how to make cookies stand up in fun 3-D structures, and much more!
