BookList - Denise Perry Donavin
From the creator of "Colette's Cakes" comes a splendid collection of Christmas confections, cookies, cakes, and other creations. Plenty of novel ideas appear beautifully illustrated on these pages, but most will be too difficult for the amateur, even though precise instructions are given for every item. There are a few, such as Christmas cookie boxes and edible ornaments, that the dilettante could attempt. A elegant treasury of treats.
