The ultimate guide to classic bakes and modern favorites that doesn't just tell you what to do - it shows you. What's the difference between beating and folding? What should "soft peaks" look like? How do you line a pastry crust? When it comes to baking, knowing what an instruction means can be the difference between a showstopper and a soggy bottom. That's where Illustrated Step-by-Step Baking comes in. Each of the 80 classic recipes in this essential collection is fully illustrated, with photographs of every stage of the baking process. See what other baking books only tell you: how to knead the dough, rub together butter and flour, and create a pastry lattice to top a pie or tart. Then try your hand at more than 250 variations on those classics, or use them as inspiration to build on what you've learned and experiment with your own baking creations. If you're spoilt for choice, at-a-glance recipe choosers help you find the right recipe for any occasion, while tips on freezing help you to prepare your bakes ahead of time. With sweet and savory recipes that everyone will enjoy, it's time to roll up your sleeves, flour your work surface, and whip up something superb with Illustrated Step-by-Step Baking.

We created this book for children, but we recommend it for adults as well. It's for those who don't like to read boring bricks of text but prefer to get right down to business, learning skills as they go. You won't find a book easier to use than this one. Not only does it have illustrated recipes for delicious dishes with concise, detailed descriptions, but it also has important information about the basics of baking that we've simplified and illustrated. The recipes have been tested by many people. We've chosen the best ones. Recipes that have received the highest ratings. Meticulously tested and proven. Only popular and very tasty dishes. The dishes are varied, taken from different cuisines. Sweet and savory, festive, and healthy, vegan and even meat. You'll find both familiar classics and exotic new recipes. Most of them are sweet and sure to please children. Different baking techniques are used to teach and develop your child's key kitchen skills. Simple, but not primitive. Easy to make. Recipes are broken down into 3 categories of difficulty, but even the most difficult ones are manageable for a child. Most recipes require 3 to 10 ingredients. Don't require gourmet ingredients. Chances are you already have everything you need, or you can find it at the nearest supermarket, regardless of the country you live in. In addition, there are substitution options for many of the ingredients. Most recipes require only the most basic cooking utensils. And even for those, there are substitution options: no microwave -- make a water bath; no mixer -- use a whisk. Not just recipes. The book will teach your kids the basics of baking. It's as easy as 1 - 2 - 3. Your child will not be confused. The book contains illustrated instructions on every necessary step: from washing their hands before they start to cleaning up after themselves afterward. A clearly illustrated safety manual that your child won't skip. It's clear and simple enough to grasp after one read-through. The book introduces key baking terminology in a simple, visual way. It's better to show with a picture what "knead" or "grease" means than to explain in words. Not only can a child cook the chosen dish easily, he or she will find an interesting fact about it at the end of the recipe. This book can serve you for a lifetime! Even a 4-year-old child can understand the book, because it illustrates in detail absolutely every action, ingredients, and even tools. Children will love the fun illustration style and the cute, friendly kitten character. Simple, short, but comprehensive comments on the steps will be easily understood by an older child.
