    Love it. After watching all the programs I had to treat myself to the book and I wasn’t disappointed. There are some great recipes and a few new ingredients that were new to me but make a big difference. Easy to follow instructions and some great pictures. For beginner and advanced bakers. Great present for that baker in your life and you would earns some big brownie points and get to eat some great cakes. I would buy again.

    Bought this for my girlfriend for christmas, and she loved it. The book is great, filled with pictures, Buddy's own recipes and also alot of decorating tips. Recommended for everyone who wants to learn a thing or 10 about baking, or those who just like a good read from the cake boss himself.

    Good baking book
  • Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 10 March 2014
    I have tried 2 recipes out of this book and both didn't end up the way they should have. The brownie cookies were disastrous and tasted disgusting. I then made the chocolate chip cookies, I'm thinking I got lost whilstconverting both recipes from cups to grams, as the cookie batter was more like cake mix. I persevered, and the cookies didn't turn out so great. Instead, by sheer fluke, I put the mix in ramekins, baked it and it made the richest, most chocolatey gooey desert ever! It really was divine. So I'm looking forward to trying more recipes, and possibly see where I'm going wrong.

    A good book for a hobby baker but that's about it.i love to watch cake boss and ordered this book expecting great things. Was disappointed in the content as expecting a higher quality of work from buddy.
    It is an American book with measures in cups etc. The book didn't feature many cakes to decorate and one is a thanks giving turkey.
    Lots of recipes for yummy biscuit and pastries though.

    Wurde als Weihnachtsgeschenk bestellt, da die beschenkte Person ein riesiger Buddy fan ist! Leider ist das Buch nur auf Englisch, aber es ist leicht verständlich bzw fachausdrücke können heutzutage einfach nachgeschlagen werden.

    Die Rezepte funktionieren alle bestens, vorallem der Apple Pie ist der Wahnsinn, geschmacksexplosion pur!

    Leider in Cups die Maßangabe, habe mir danach gleich noch die Cup-Becher bestellt, funktioniert einwandfrei

    Reviewed in the United States on 23 December 2011
    Whatever Buddy says to do, you do. I got this book, and starting in January, I'm going to go through almost every recipe, exactly word for word, like Julia and Julia. I'm doing this, cause I finally have a cookbook where I like everything in the book. From the simplest cookies, to more complex cakes the cookbook is well organized and written for the novice to the professional baker. I am a hobby cake baker, and am always looking for recipes. What better than recipes directly form the source? I've spent hours watching Cake Boss on TLC. I wanted so very badly to see Buddy Valestro when he toured, but didn't make it out to see him. I've learned so much form his show. With Buddy, I am able to add what I've learned from my Wilton classes I've taken, and expanded my repertoire. This cook book is worth buying. I like it cause it's not just cakes. Pies and cookies and other desserts, plus frosting recipes engrace these pages. It's lovingly written. The pictures are colorful, bright and inviting. Do your cooking a favor and buy this book. It will love you for this.
