All The Sweet Things

More than 100 unique recipes for decadent desserts and healthy baked goods from the kitchen of Ren�e Kohlman, named one of the Canada's top food bloggers by the National Post. On a cold January morning, Ren�e Kohlman followed the advice of her sister and friends and started the foodblog, Sweetsugarbean.com. A year later, she was named one of the National Post's top Canadian food bloggers. And now, in her debut cookbook, Kohlman shares more than 100 of her favorite baking recipes--including more than 60 brand-new recipes that have never been posted to the blog--along with a pinch of encouragement and a smidge of humor. Readers of Sweetsugarbean know that Kohlman's first love is baking, so it will come as no surprise that All the Sweet Things is chock-full of delectable dessert recipes for muffins, cookies, cakes, pies, custards, pastries, truffles, and ice cream. She'll show you how to reinvent last night's dessert for this morning's breakfast, inspire you to make your very first pie (and to pick the fruits yourself), and convince you that the best gifts are baked goods. With wit and warmth, she acknowledges that baking can be intimidating, but has ensured that each recipe--whether you're a beginner baker or a seasoned pro--is doable, and delicious. With a list of pantry essentials and useful tools and equipment, a photograph to accompany every recipe, healthful variations for gluten free bakers, and a number of essays written in Kohlman's signature signature style, this gorgeous new cookbook will pull you into the kitchen to bake, then back to the couch to curl up and read.
