Summary: watch out
Comment: This is a good book for cooks who have some expertise in baking.
Yes, the instructions are clear, easy to follow BUT after trying the Blueberry Orange Coffeecake, I am not sure if all these recipes were adequately tested.
The problem with that coffeecake is I followed the instructions to a T and the cake turned out to be a disaster. It was gummy gummy gummy. Why? I suspect there was a misprint in the number of eggs: The recipe called for 5 eggs (this is for a 10-inch bundt cake); I remember thinking to myself -- gosh, that's a lot of eggs for one little cake. Well, it was.
So, I had to throw out a cake that I had made with fine ingredients (french butter etc etc). From this point on, I don't trust the other recipes, even though others I tried turned out OK (although all her cakes turn out with a slightly dense texture)
