Baking for the Holidays by Sarah Kieffer 50+ Treats for a Festive Season What a treasure this book would be as a gift to oneself or to another. I can see creating holiday baking traditions using the recipes in this book, enjoying the process, and memories that would be treasured by the baker, assistant bakers, or recipients of the baked goods. So many of the recipes triggered personal memories of recipes I have made or would like to make in the future relatives or friends. I just wish that desserts didn’t have so many calories. Ah well… What I liked: * The introduction with memories of the author’s childhood * The recipes selected for the book * That many recipes provided variations on the basic recipe * The notes on techniques, ingredients, and equipment * The clear concise list of ingredients and directions for making the recipes * The beautiful photographs * The old favorites and some new ideas to try * The gift section with smaller items like cookies, bars and candies * That it put me in the mood for the holidays…and for cooler weather * Thinking about someday being with family again during the holidays What I didn’t like: * I can’t really think of ANYTHING I didn’t like Did I enjoy this book? Yes Would I like to own it? Yes Would I buy it as a gift for someone else? Definitely Thank you to NetGalley and Chronicle Books for the ARC – This is my honest review. 5 Stars

This book would be a wonderful a wonderful addition to your collection or make an amazing gift to give. To start it is simply gorgeous! The photos are abundant and beautiful. An excellent array of recipes are included that cover a variety of sweet treats. Cakes, pies, cookies, bread and more are covered here and these recipes range from the simple to the more elaborate. The recipes are detailed, clear instructions are given and often variation are offered. This book also includes many tips and a lot of helpful information that will help up your baking game. I am independently posting a impartial review.
