Baking Kids Love

Product Description Ready, set, bake! Baking is fun, a great way to connect with kids, and the results are delicious. Whether you're slathering fluffy, white frosting over a decadent chocolate cake, or forming soft ropes of dough into creative shapes, time spent together in the kitchen creates memories that last a lifetime. Both young and old love a warm surprise when it comes out of the oven. Baking Kids Love brings the magic of baking alive through thirty delicious recipes, designed for 8 to 12-year-olds, that are totally a blast to make--and eat! Baking instructor Cindy Mushet and her daughter Bella team up with cookware authority Sur La Table to carefully guide kids through the experience of creating awesome masterpieces in the kitchen. Step-by-step instructions for key steps (along with Bella's personal comments about the recipes), inventive variations, and colorful photography complete the book. Popovers magically rising into puffy, golden pillows, and gooey, warm cheese melting over the sides of a crispy pizza crust--these are just a few of the surprises waiting to be enjoyed in this book. So roll up your sleeves, get a little flour on your hands, and warm your stomach with a treat while sharing a smile. Baking Kids Love is baking that both kids and adults will love. Review "This book is colorful and has ring-bound thick pages for easy turning and cleaning off spills. It is packed with crowd-pleasing sugar-laden desserts and fun decorating ideas. Most recipes also have little notes with cooking tips or alternate ingredients." --The Wall Street Journal, December 26, 2009 "Cindy Mushet's "Baking Kids Love" is a definite stand-out. The author has done an incredible job putting together a collection of infallible recipes that will appeal to every kid in your life - big and small (and adults too). " --Project Foodie "[Pastry chef (and award-winning cookbook author) Cindy Mushet and her 11-year-old daughter Bella Robinson] teamed to create Mushet's latest book, "Baking Kids Love".
