[Kimberly Ann]

What a delightful book, filled with (mostly) easy to make, delicious sounding recipes that are perfect for giving during the holiday season.

Cakes, cookies, candies, preserves, nuts, relishes & pickles, and beverages such as: Coffee liqueur, Flavored vodka, Marinated olives, Salsa, Chutney, Corn relish, Cured wild mushrooms, Sour cherry jam, Mango lime jam, Truffles, Wine stars, Scotch shortbread, Apricot bread, Chocolate mousse cake, and many more...

There is a short introduction to each chapter and plenty of color photographs, there is even instructions for making Gingerbread houses.

Looking to make old-school gifts in the kitchen? This is your cookbook! Definitely the things your mother/grandmother made.

Some of the same recipes as the other gift-giving books, but there are a few others that I thought looked like fun...and were quite easy.
