Complete Step-by-step Guide to Making Sweets, Candy and Chocolates by Claire Ptak
Usually associated with childhood indulgences, the taste of candy and chocolate is a pleasure that we enjoy all our lives. This volume evokes all those memories of long-forgotten tastes, with 150 recipes for sweets, candies and chocolate confections, whether hard, chewy, soft or sticky. From salt-water taffy, homecomb and vanilla fudge to pear drops, chocolate peanut butter cups and champagne truffles, it includes old-fashioned treats and some modern twists on traditional classics, and every tried-and-tested recipe is shown in step-by-step photographs.
Claire Ptak trained as a pastry chef for Alice Waters at Chez Panisse in Berkeley before moving to London. Upon her arrival she worked in restaurants including Moro, The Anchor and Hope and St. John before starting Violet Cakes, a stall at Broadway Market in east London. Since 2005, Violet has been selling cupcakes and other treats to a very loyal following, including Jamie Oliver, Nigella Lawson and Thomasina Miers. Claire is also the author of The Whoopie Pie Book (Square Peg).
