## Description

A design-forward cookbook for sweet and savory baked goods from London's popular Violet Bakery that focuses on quality ingredients, seasonality, and taste (as opposed to science) as the keys to creating satisfying, delightful homemade pastries, tarts, sweets, and more. Violet is a jewel box of a cake shop and café in Hackney, east London. The baking is done with simple ingredients including whole grain flours, less refined sugars, and the natural sweetness and nuanced hues of seasonal fruits. Everything is made in an open kitchen for people to see. Famed for its exquisite baked goods, Violet has become a destination. Owner Claire Ptak uses her Californian sensibility to create recipes that are both nourishing and indulgent. With a careful eye to taste and using the purest ingredients, she has created the most flavorful iterations of classic cakes, as well as new treats for modern palates. Over 100 recipes include nourishing breakfasts, midday snacks, desserts to share, fruit preserves, and stylish celebration cakes. This book is about making baking worth it: simple to cook and satisfying to eat.

Review: Scrumptious recipes, beautiful book - I bought this book partly for the cover, and partly because I was enthralled by Claire's approach to baking from the interview I saw in Milk Street. So far I've made 3 recipes from it (scones, chocolate cake, and the rye brownies). The recipes were really easy to follow and turned out DELICIOUS. And they're very easy to modify if desired (she even provides suggestions for doing so). Especially the brownies, which I was a little unsure about, came out aMAZing. I've been eagerly waiting for apricot season to come around since the apricot upside down cake and the apricot corn muffins are what I'm most looking forward to. (Although aren't apricot kernels toxic? Might leave those out D: )
Review: I Love This Book - I really really love this cookbook. I have made quite a few recipes from it (apricot upside down cake, brownies, blondies, madeleines, banana bread, egg yolk cookies, etc.) and have found them all to be delicious. Each baked good I have made feels unique and high quality. It is a beautiful book and my go-to when I want to make a special, crowd-pleasing dessert. I am glad weights are included along with volumes; I think this is the reason my results have always been successful. Lovely book: tasty recipes, delicate and sweet photography, all-around amazing.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A solid baking cookbook with some standout desserts
*by R***N on June 14, 2018*

I became curious about Claire Ptak after reading about the royal wedding cake in the New Yorker. After finding some of her recipes on the Internet and making the delicious rye brownies, I decided I needed this cookbook. Although the edition I bought still seems to have the incorrect measurements that other reviewers have complained about (the cup conversions are way off for the cinnamon rolls), I measured by weight and have had no fails so far. Most of the things I've made have been amazing, with only a couple recipes I didn't care for. Outstanding (in order of how much I loved it): Loganberry vanilla birthday cake - I made the icing with blackberries (suggested substitution, because who has loganberries?) and have made this cake twice because it was that good. Rye chocolate brownies Butterscotch blondies - excellent although I tried (and failed) to make the caramel shards TWICE. I blame the humidity. Cinnamon buns - these were different but good! Not your usual yeasty cinnamon rolls because the leavening is with baking powder. Mozzarella, rosemary, and new potato tarts Alice Waters's apple galette Wouldn't make again: Lacinato kale, leek, and ricotta bread pudding - I liked this but nobody else in my family did. Blueberry, spelt, and oat scones (dry and overpowering with almond butter) I still plan to make the sweet potato, coconut, date, and rye muffins, the chocolate souffle cake, banana buttermilk bread, the ginger snaps, and the chocolate chip cookies, but I haven't gotten around to doing so. However, this has been a very successful cookbook purchase already, and I expect to continue to cook a lot from here.
