Beginner's Baking Bible: 130+ Recipes and Techniques for New Bakers

Easy to follow with great recipes, especially the blue berry muffins. I purchase for my daughter but also feel in love with thw recipes listed and their simplicity. I would by again. This alos makes a great gift for all ages and levels not just beginners. I'm an experienced baker and I still learned alot.

LOVE her recipes, especially oatmeal cookies and coconut cream pie. Her recipes are a great start getting into the baking world!

Clear instructions, you just have to search for the different parts at times. Easy to read, came in perfect condition. Good basic recipes.

Very helpful with baking tips and advice

I just baked Blueberry Muffins (page 96) Came out amazing. It is my first recipe tried from this book, already excited. Sharing my muffins pic below :) Thank you for the amazing recipe :)))))

My son loves this book

The Perfect Chocolate Chip Cookie caught my eye and is the first recipe I tried. They were a huge hit with requests for more. Who doesn't like a warm chocolate chip cookie. Therefore, this cookbook was the perfect gift for my daughters and daughter-in-law. As new bakers they attempted many of the recipes and found the tips at the bottom of each page very helpful. All recipes are easy to read and follow with step by step instructions. I was a culinary teacher for 30 years and I know simple instructions makes for better bakers. Each recipe gives you a tip, suggestion, or substitute to use ingredients you have on hand. This cookbook might say for beginners but the wide variety of recipes and helpful techniques makes you look like a pro. I highly recommend this cookbook to anyone who enjoys baking and wants professional results.

Excellent for ANYONE! NOT just for a "beginner," as it is extremely methodical in its presentation which lays a solid foundation for introduction to (a) the kitchen and more specifically to (b) the art of baking. She systematically defines the "what" of common cooking and baking terms, as well as simplisticly explains the "why." A MUST HAVE for the beginner; a GREAT way to start a young person on the road to a rewarding and fulfilling baking journey; and an AWESOME reference work for the experienced cook! The recipes are SUPERB- covering the most basic items to the more elaborate "for that special occasion" treats - ALL using ordinary ingredients found on almost any kitchen pantry shelves, or at least easily obtainable from the local grocery store. Thank you, Mrs. Perine, for your wonderful introduction to the Art of Baking and the strong encouragement you give to all who read to book! I HIGHLY RECOMMEND.

My granddaughter loves baking cookies and cakes from this book. She is 10 years old.

very happy with it. contains a lot of recipes, easily explained and well structured. would buy again!

This is an American publication but that isn't stated in the description. The measures are all in cups and it uses a lot of products not familiar or available in other countries.. There are very few pictures which I would have thought essential for beginners, and of course the recipes are for traditional American bakes.. like pumpkin pie. Very dissapointed and will return..

Great book for my daughter who is 11 and loves cooking

I bought this as a present for my Goddaughter and she was over the moon.
