hmmm... I received this book from dear friends ( she knew nothing about baking)

I simply pity myself that I did not brave enough to try the recipe...
how about the cheesecake recipe? was it ok? or KO just like the cupcakes recipe?

Is the publisher for this book PageOne?

Thanks for highlighting this. It's a good reminder not to buy books without the author's name stated, sometimes we just forget, too exicited with the wonderful cake shots! I did the same mistake once, horrible cakes!.

Hi all,
I do not agree with only buy books with author's name. I worked with a famous pastry chef before, from probably the most famous restaurant in USA, told me that his/her new book got some recipes that just wont work, so don't try them. Its a very very expensive book.

maybe the recipe is very sensitive...
thus must follow to the text
