Biscuits, Pastries and Cookies of the World

In this book every recipe is photographed in colour and there is step-by-step photography for more difficult recipes. The 150 recipes from around the world include traditional chocolate fudge brownies, macaroons and shortbread as well as more exotic and unusual recipes such as Palais de Dame and Almondines and honey-flavoured Baklava. Spiced with anecdotes and folklore, the book also includes a chapter on icings, toppings and decorations.
