For food writer, stylist, and party expert Ffrench, dessert isn't just an indulgence—it's a means to strengthen relationships and preserve family history. Rather than expound on pastry technique, she emphasizes activities that can enrich family life, like recording an interview with a relative, starting a family recipe blog, or taking a baking class. More than 40 such ideas accompany her family's recipes for cookies, cakes, bars, pies, puddings, and traditional Norwegian treats (e.g., Rosettes, Krumkaker, and Skoleboller). It also includes many helpful Internet resources.
VERDICT Perfect for sweet-toothed readers looking to create new family memories. Highly recommended.
