Book Synopsis



Perfect the art of French patisserie with over 80 delicious recipes from The Great British Bake Off winner Edd Kimber.

"Baking requires skill and perfection, and Edd's got it." Mary Berry

"Edd Kimber has made everyone's favorite French desserts and pastries accessible and easy to make. From buttery sable cookies to crusty canelés and flaky croissants, anyone can bake and enjoy the best French pastries, right in their own kitchen!" David Lebovitz

"Edd's desserts taste as good as they look - these delicious recipes inspire the baker in all of us." Philippe Conticini

This is a new edition of Edd Kimber's ultimate baking book that will help you recreate all the wonderful treats you'd find in a traditional French patisserie. With easy-to-follow step-by-step guides, Edd takes you through the techniques you'll need to make your own classic French bakes, from a moist and tasty genoise sponge to that quintessential icon of French pastry: the flaky, buttery croissant.

Chapters include:
- Sweet Treats: Classic Financiers, Canelés and Eclairs
- Desserts & cakes: Cherry Clafoutis and Buche de Noel
- Pastry: Easy guides to making Pâte Sablée and Pâte Sucrée, and recipes for delicious tarts to use them in
- Basics: Essential icings and creams, such as Mousseline and Crème Chantilly

Edd's mouthwatering recipes use bakeware found in most household kitchens, removing the need for expensive or complex equipment and allowing you to create the perfect patisserie in your own home.
