BOOK REVIEW: Mom's Big Book of Baking by Laura Chattman
Being a mother is not easy, judging from the pinched face my mum used to have when I gave her hell during my younger days! Haha! Many mothers out there are juggling between work and family, striving to be the best they can in both worlds. They especially take an interest in the dining table.
As a busy mom you want to make memorable treats for family and friends, but you're realistic about the amount of time you have, and you want whatever effort you put into the kitchen to have a big payback.
With that in mind, Lauren Chattman has created simple recipes that produce the highest quality baked goods with the least amount of fuss. The recipes are guaranteed to please even the pickiest kids.
But that doesn't mean they're boring: they strike a comforting balance between comforting classics, such as Devil's Food Cake or Molasses Cookies, and delicious new ideas that are destined to become family favorites, such as Sweet Grape Focaccia or Coconut Ginger Blondies.
Sprinkled throughout the book are loads of tips on when and how to let kids participate in the kitchen, as well as invaluable pointers on such vital topics as how to mass produce cupcakes and how to make a birthday cake your child will remember forever.
Now thanks to this book, many of my friends and family out there who are mothers can greet any occasion with grace and style.
