I came across this book while wandering in a book store and picked it up becasue I have her other book called, Crazy about Cupcakes. I like the way Krystina provides easy to follow directions and techniques for baking and decorating in both of her books. She also does a nice job explaining the various ingrediants, what they do, and why they are important. She explains the various tools to use and how to use them. I also apprecaite that she provides modifications for dietary needs. She has quite...more
I have the "Kohl's Cares" edition, so 100% of the book cost supports Kids' Health and Education, that in itself deserves a star.
Castella does a nice of job of explaining why the ingredients are important, how to use tools, and how to make changes to the recipes for specific health needs. The directions are easy to follow.

Looks like more than just cookies: sorbet, savory cookies, smores. Frankly, everything looks delicious and I'm hungry. I'll review this at a later time.
Great tips, and even BETTER recipes. My new all time favorite:butterscotch icebox cookies.
There are some tasty ones in here- I'm going to give a few of them a shot.
Such fun cookies to make, she makes it an art form.
