A must have for the home baker July 9, 2008
J. Smith (North Carolina)
I just love this book! Everything I've made out of it has turned out perfectly, and I highly recommend it. The pictures themselves are reason enough to buy this book, and they were the main reason I bought it in the first place. If you love to bake, then get this book. You won't be sorry!

Love this book! May 28, 2008
C. Fontes (Boston, MA)
This is an outstanding book. I am an avid baker (and a passionate one at that!) I love Marcy Goldman's recipes as well as her baking wisdom that is sprinkled throughout the pages. I have tried several recipes and they have all been fabulous. The Popcorn Bread is my family's new favorite bread! The donuts were fabulous and the Java Streusal Banana Muffins were out of this world! I would bake any of Marcy's recipes with no worries. She is a treasured and trusted source!

A MUST HAVE FOR THE HOME BAKER. April 27, 2008
Lisa C. Palatsky (Albany, NY)
This is like no other cookbook you've ever seen. The recipes are easy to understand, use ingredients you probably already have on-hand, and come out perfectly even on the first try! I have literally HUNDREDS of cookbooks in my collection and after buying and using this one, I am paring down. This book makes many of the others completely unnecessary because compared to A Passion for Baking, the other books are simply ordinary (sorry, Martha). I have just bought Marcy's [Jewish] Holiday Baking and am looking forward to trying those, too. The recipes ideas start with the ordinary and end up show-stopping. I am now a HUGE Marcy Goldman fan!

As always, Marcy has written a wonderful book. The recipes for both bubka and olive bread are outstanding.

I found a new favorite April 7, 2008
Michelle M. Fradella (Picayune, MS)
Absolutely a beautiful book, with MANY great recipes. I can't wait to try out the fabulous cheesecakes. I made the Chocolate Chip Cookie Recipe and I think it is my new favorite. If you love to bake, you have got to get this book. Lots of great hints and tips, too.
