The author of The Italian Baker and Melissa Forti's Christmas Baking Book returns with a mouthwatering blend of memoir, culture, and delicious recipes for classic and modern baked treats. With her extraordinary spirit and talent, Melissa Forti lives her life baking one cake at a time. A pastime at first, baking became her passion and her profession. Today, she serves her unique and delicious cakes in her recently opened Café Duse in Copenhagen, Denmark. In her new book, Melissa shares the story of her culinary journey. Starting with her heritage, she focuses on typical recipes from her native Rome--including ricotta cheesecake, biscotti, and zeppole--accompanied by gorgeous images of the Eternal City. She chronicles her personal and professional evolution as a baker with images from her stylish new café and personalized recipes for tiramisu, red velvet cake, meringue, and others. Finally, she looks to the future, with classic bakes updated for contemporary diets, including vegan chocolate cake, gluten free pound cake, and dairy free apricot galette. Beautifully illustrated and filled with recipes for cooks at every level of expertise, this new offering from a hugely popular author is as inspiring as it is satisfying.
