Review: Really Amazing Cakes! - Easy to understand and the two cakes we've made have been very, very good! Try the Hummingbird Cake. I had never heard of this cake but the ingredients worked well together and the icing was amazing! This is coming from a guy who only eats chocolate, chocolate and more chocolate. The Hummingbird Cake had no chocolate and it was still delicious. Review: This is a really good book. I'd recommend. - Love this book. Great recipes using regular ingredients. It also has really useful info and tips for baking.

Delicious Recipes
So far I tried a few recipes and all were good. Great directions and pictures. If you baked a cake from.scratch before or not you will get good results

Not bad
Nice book, I just don't like that the cover is different than the dust jacket. It is very drab.

If you can read and follow directions, you will have a perfect cake
I love the America's Test Kitchen cookbooks. You know the recipe works because, well, they tested the recipes. No shortcuts though. If the say to use a baking spray with flour, they mean it. It's the difference between a great bake and a disaster.

Excellent for beginners
I had a good feeling about this book and I was right :) This should be called "Baking from scratch" or something like that, it is perfect for a beginner like me, and talks about baking techniques (with helpful pictures), ingredients, and of course, it has a lot of excellent recipes.

Un incontournable
Je suis une canadienne vivant à Paris et les amies de ma fille me demandent souvent de préparer des gâteaux "américains". À tous ceux et celles qui veulent préparer ce type de gâteaux, je recommande ce livre. America's test kitchen en gage de qualité en Amérique du Nord. Leurs recettes sont inratables. Évidemment, il faut parler anglais, mais vous ne regretterez pas cet achat. Les photos sont magnifiques aussi.
