Praise for Pierre Hermé Pastries: "There are cookbooks, and there are coffee table books. Pierre Hermé Pastries (Stewart, Tabori & Chang; $50) is more the latter than the former, though that shouldn’t detract from its value to those who are captivated, maybe even obsessed, by beautiful desserts." —Washington Post "The photographs are stunning. The recipes are the stuff of custard-rich dreams." —Publishers Weekly "This is a cookbook that a passionate pastry lover will want, not only to replicate Hermé's own recipes but to be inspired by, as well. And for anyone who loves a good story to go along with the food, you'll appreciate reading about the history behind each recipe." —Epicurious.com “Read it cover to cover, and you'll have a very good idea of how French pastry got to where it is today . . . Intense cookbook porn ahead: don’t say you weren't warned.” —Eater.com Read more Details Publisher : Stewart, Tabori and Chang (March 1, 2012) Language : English Hardcover : 288 pages ISBN-10 : 1584799455 ISBN-13 : 50 Item Weight : 4.95 pounds Dimensions : 11 x 1.25 x 9.4 inches Best Sellers Rank: #2,627,655 in Books (See Top 100 in Books) #1,046 in Pastry Baking (Books) #1,226 in French Cooking, Food & Wine #1,046 in Pastry Baking (Books) #1,226 in French Cooking, Food & Wine Stock Photos Please Note: All of our book listings use stock photos unless otherwise stated.
