--Booklist

Odd, really, why there hasn't been a book devoted to the wide range of New Orleans desserts. Now there is, and it's as fine a book as one could ask for, beautiful in its illustrations, sound in its judgments, and tantalizing in its recipes.
--John Mariani, author and columnist

The book reads like a series of short stories, the photographs are so wonderful you want to lick them, and the desserts themselves will bring you to your knees in joy. It just doesn't get any better than this!
--Linda Ellerbee, author

Savoring these treasured New Orleans recipes is almost as good as being there again. Close your eyes and experience the city. Heaven on your tongue.
