I love how the author has all these stories to go with every recipe. This book brings a lot of mouth watering cupcake recipes and more. Divided by seasons to make use of seasonal ingredients, the cupcakes are luxurious but don't make much at a time.

The most incredible book of cake and cookie recipes I have ever come across. High fat, high calorie... and wonderful results for everything I have tried. The book is nicely presented too (other than the VERY pink cover) with anecdotes about the author's childhood and memories of baking from her mother's kitchen. Highly recommended... so long as you're not trying to lose weight.
