Baking All Year Round

Bought this as a birthday gift for my teenage daughter, who is a fan of this YouTuber. She loves it. High quality book with beautiful pictures and clear explanations. My daughter has prepared a few of the recipes and, though they are not the simplest, they were all a hit.

Las recetas son buenas. Algunas recetas son las clasicas con un pequeno twist que les da un nuevo sabor. Algunas son laboriosas pero es esperado por las imagenes del resultado final.

So I just received my book today... I had been putting off buying it because of the price but luckily for me the listing went down to about $11 for a couple of hours and I snagged it before the price went back up- anyway onto the review.Seeing it in person I forgot how short it actually is considering I oogled this cookbook book in target for a while before committing so I took a photo next to a standard cable remote for my TV just so you can see how short it actually is, but don't let that fool you! All of the pictures and text is standard size and is very easy to read.And about that..It's surprisingly easy to read? All the recipes seem super complex but if you read them step by step she writes them super simply and I don't think anyone would have a problem following any of these recipes other than the fact that some of the equipment she lists you might not have in your home like I don't own a stand mixer but luckily Ro has thought ahead! Any stencils, shapes, cookie cutters or anything you might need is in the back of the book so that you can make your own should you need a certain shape or something that you can't find in the store and she even has a how-to instructions in the beginning of the book so that you know exactly how to use those she provided. And as for the stand mixer I feel like I can still follow every single one of these recipes by simply mixing it by hand so that really solves that problem. Also if you're thinking about buying this but you don't really go anywhere like parties and are worried these are kinda 'holiday only'- That's all right because honestly a lot of these you could just change the decorations on them or make them for dinner such as with the rolls or the pizzas but even the cupcakes you could simply not put certain icing designs on them and you can use them for all year around!I haven't made a recipe yet but I'll edit this with my experience :^)Edit:Ive made 2 recipes so far (the scones and the mini pumpkin cakes) and I got to say both of them turned out amazing. You just have to go in with realistic expectations like the fact that scones are going to taste like scones- they were moist and delicious and subtly flavored but they aren't cookies so they weren't extremely sweet, they were a little bit bland if you got a peice with no fruit. As for the pumpkin spice mini cakes I was too afraid of using her recipe for the Swiss buttercream (having never made icing before) that I just got some fresh regular buttercream from the Publix down the street... and I should have followed her recipe because hers included espresso so mine came out way too sweet and it kind of took away from the amazing flavor of the cake. So basically what I'm saying is follow her instructions because she will not guide you wrong. If you're like me then you might find this a little unnerving- because I've tried to follow Tasty recipes before (even one babish recipe) and they all came out just awful so it was surprising that every recipe I've made so far was amazing. 10/10

Very happy

Great recipies very versatile, its catered to events such as Christmas, Halloween ect but its easily altered to suit any occasion.Eg, reindeer christmas cake, remove the reindeer and Christmas decorations and its a normal cake for any occasion.Book quality is great.
