This is an excellent cookbook! My first try at this was the traditional vanilla birthday cake and I got rave reviews for it! The recipes and tips are well written and easy to follow. Very simple, traditional homemade recipes that have fallen by the wayside over the years. People just don't take the time to make homemade cakes, etc. anymore and I was glad to see that this tradition is being brought back.
What is not to love about The Magnolia Bakery Books?? I have found so many useful recipes that are delightfully good, and surprisingly simple. I Love cookbooks and the Magnolia Bakery Books are in my top 5 out of a 100's for tasty treats. I would find it hard to believe that there are not more than a few recipes, that any person, at any time could not find, to create wonderful tasting desert that would please a family or a crowd.
We bought the book for my daughter for Christmas. Was delivered lightning fast. She has made us wonderful cupcakes with special icing that we gobbled up. We have some diabetics in the family so she made us some wonderful oatmeal muffins. Now i've had oatmeal muffins before and the taste like CARDBOARD. THESE WE SIMPLY EXQUISITE...moist ,tasty , delicious. ALL natural ingredients made with love. We saw the book featured on the Conan Obrien show. My daughter downloaded a wonderful recipe for brownies. With one taste we KNEW we had to buy her this book. We have not been disappointed !!!!!!
great cook book

I'm a California girl, but I have visited NYC several times and waited in the 1 1/2 to 2 hours in line at Magnolia Bakery for a Red Velvet Cupcake (and other goodies)! These are the tried and true recipes of the beloved Magnolia Bakery! The recipes are easy to follow and turn out wonderful! Take, bake and enjoy! Okay so it should be read, bake and enjoy...but it doesn't roll off the tongue as sweet! Happy baking!
