Joy The Baker Cookbook is a celebration of sugar and butter. It honours whipped cream and vanilla extract, approaching baking with inspiration and heart. Joy's philosophy is that everyone loves dessert; most people are just looking for an excuse to eat cake for breakfast. If you have the power to coax something beautifully sweet out of your kitchen, it's as though you have a magic wand in your hands. With a trusty recipe and a mixing bowl, you have the power to delight your daughter with birthday cupcakes, sway your husband with chocolate chip cookies, and surprise your coworkers with homemade coffee cake.
Joy the Baker's website is extremely popular, as is her L.A. catering company. Now Joy Wilson shares her incredibly delicious recipes for all kinds of sweets -- pancakes, cupcakes, cookies, brownies, cakes, and more -- in her warm, humourous, irreverent style. Joy is a single woman who often writes about cooking up delicious dishes for the guys she's dating. She also writes about the comforts of friends and family, cooking with her Dad, and other personal topics. Her style is warm and chatty, and her recipes are absolutely mouth-watering.
