Book Reviews of The Joy of Vegan Baking: The Compassionate Cooks' Traditional Treats and Sinful Sweets

Book Review: Baking Standards Vegan Style
Summary: 5 Stars

This book is great for both new and experienced bakers. Having received this book as a gift, I was first impressed with the beautiful color photos (who doesn't love recipe books with photos), then the quality of the recipes. It includes wonderful tips and tricks great for any baking. Many typically non-vegan standard recipes are included, such as lemon bars (wow), crepes, and baklava - I have had both non-vegans and vegans extremely happy with the baklava! For the new vegan baker, many of the ingredients are fairly standard and experienced bakers can very easily use alternative sweeteners/flours/oils, et cetera and make the recipe their own. The recipe ingredients aren't as intimidating as many vegan cookbooks that include ingredients that can only be found in very large cities.

Also, because most of the ingredient measurements are also listed in metric, I was able to bring this book to Italy and impress with vegan baking there. All around, this book is sure to be a classic on vegan bookshelves with tasty, home-style dishes served with pleasure.
