I didn't like this book. I only got it as a part of a prize basket in a charity silent auction. It retails for $17 and that price is unsuitable. The recipes are overly complex and require uncommon ingredients. Also, she includes her own very specific choices for ingredients (such as agave nectar and grapeseed oil), which I did not have in my kitchen and felt obligated to try for the book. I choose to use plain white sugar, honey, or raw sugar- but I was not confident in how to substitute these....more
This one looks more like me, again a tad amero-centric with some of the ingredients, these look doable and interesting, again, I'm avoiding doing a lot of baking as I'd eat it all and I need to fix my weight and diet before making myself treats like these.
This is more a family orientated book with the kind of treats you could hand out at a kids party or posh up a bit and hand around at a dinner party. Beautifully pictured, even if some of the pictures aren't with the recipes, this is a more home...more

While I am not a sufferer of celiac's disease, I am allergic to wheat. Also rice and corn with most people with wheat allergies can eat. This book saved my sanity. I am not joking or exaggerating; giving up baked goods was the hardest thing I have had to do. Finding out that I can bake sweets with coconut and almond flours was a god-send.
If you are allergic to wheat for any reason, get this book.

I LOVED this cookbook and her simply how-to recipes. Our only complaint was the amount of time it took to cool the cupcakes. Don't let this discourage you though, as every cupcake recipe we tried was SO worth the wait!
Coconut flour is used in many of these recipes. I think it is a bit of an acquired taste in baked goods- but I have acquired the taste! I enjoy these cupcakes and recommend the book.
Recipes are very fussy, won't work unless very specific instructions are followed.
I've tested out two recipes now (marble & chocolate)...& am pretty impressed. What the marble cupcakes lacked - the chocolate zinged right on! Also - my gluten-free friends are thrilled... (& always eager to be guinea pigs when it comes to cupcakes)
