The Baking Bible, an IACP award-winning title, is now available on ckbk, cover-to-cover in an ultra-searchable form.
Rose Levy Beranbaum, the queen of everything sweet, is known for her multi-volume "Bible” series—definitive works that dive deep into all types of dessert making. The prolific recipe developer spent decades researching, recipe testing and writing a dozen books on nearly every category of sweet treat including cakes, pies, tarts, cookies, candies, pastries, breads and more (the latest about Ice Cream will be released this May). The Baking Bible is a compilation of all her best work, encompassing the topics of her previous titles.
In her signature detail-oriented style, Beranbaum provides foolproof recipes, providing thorough explanation and tips for success. It’s a reliable reference for both the experienced and novice baker.
Each chapter begins with a thorough guide of essential techniques and tips, followed by Beranbaum’s “golden rules”, plus, informative troubleshooting guides that address common problems. Hundreds of recipes are provided to put those newly learned skills to task.
ckbk co-founder and CCO Nadia Arumugam cites The Baking Bible as one of her all-time favorite cookbooks, sharing, “It is near impossible to create a recipe from The Baking Bible and not have it turn out beautifully. Rose miraculously pre-empts any possible mishap, filling out the recipes with ingenious tips and tricks. Every baking experience is an education. Not only do you emerge at the end with a truly divine treat but you are also a better, more knowledgeable and confident baker. That’s why we are so excited to have The Baking Bible on ckbk—it epitomizes everything we stand for. We don’t just want to deliver great, no-fail recipes, we want our content to help our members become their best cooks!”
