SynopsisIrresistible delights showcasing Atlanta's sweet side.

Filled with gorgeous photographs and history about the dishes and the restaurants that made them famous, this stylish gift cookbook presents the finest desserts from such renowned restaurants as The Dining Room, Rathbun's, and Douceur de France in a clear and elegant format that will allow every home cook to entertain like a world-class gastronome., "Offers a treasure trove of recipes featuring Atlanta's favorite sweet treats and their histories." --Knoxville News Sentinel While Atlanta may be a city of change and transformation--its symbol is, after all, a phoenix--it also has an impressive legacy of unforgettable food. Southern cuisine with a twist, Atlanta's culinary offerings mirror the city itself: sophisticated and diverse, flexible but distinctive. This charming gift cookbook presents the wild variety of Atlanta's sweet side, featuring desserts from the city's best restaurants and chefs. As much a restaurant guide as it is a cookbook, this collection of irresistible recipes highlights lighthearted anecdotes and histories for each dessert, restaurant, and chef included. Organized by type of dessert--Candy, Cookies & Doughnuts; Pies, Cobblers & Tarts; Puddings & Custards; Ice Cream, Ices & Gelato; and, of course, Cakes--the recipes in this collection showcase the rich and varied offerings of Atlanta. Georgia Muscadine Trio from the Dining Room, Pecan Pie with Ginger Whipped Cream from Wisteria, Coca-Cola Cake from Carver's Country Kitchen, Lemon Poppyseed Cake from Babette's Café, and the irresistible Peanut Butter Pie from Mary Mac's Tea Room represent only a sampling of the dishes featured. From cakes and custards to cookies and cobblers, this cookbook will have even the most inexperienced bakers looking like professionals with true Atlanta style.
