An expanded edition of the well-loved and sought-after baking bible, with 35 new recipes, all-new photos and a fresh look When it was first released in 2002, The Best of BetterBaking.com was an instant bestseller, capturing the hearts of bakers everywhere. With the huge popularity of Marcy's latest title, A Passion for Baking (which sold over 120,000 copies in a year), the timing couldn't be better to re-release her baking classic The New Best of BetterBaking.com. Before every home baker had their own blog, Marcy Goldman was sharing her mouth-watering recipes and practical baking tips on the ground-breaking website BetterBaking.com. Its engaging style made it an underground favorite with bakers and its recipes began to gain a reputation for creating the best cakes, cookies, breads and muffins out there. It wasn't long before The New York Times was praising the site for its superior design, delicious food and entertaining and informative essays. This book collects the best recipes and essays from the much loved website, presenting them for the first time in old-fashioned book format.
