Are you ready for some Summertime treats?
Beach House Baking can help!
Pastry Chef Lei Shishak has put together a beautiful collection of recipes that will remind you of good times at the beach with family and friends. She lives in South Orange County, California and has a bakery near the ocean. Her baking is a reflection of her love of the beach lifestyle.
The cookbook includes 100 recipes for a wide variety of desserts. Throughout the cookbook are stories and memories about the beaches that inspired the recipes. It’s like taking a culinary journey to beautiful beaches around the world.
The recipes are easy to follow. She uses basic ingredients that are either already in my pantry or easy to find. They are definitely dessert, but aren’t overly sugary.
This is a cookbook that is fun to use and enjoyable to read or just look at the photographs.
