The Advanced Art of Baking and Pastry, Second Edition balances a range of topics with depth of coverage, encompassing bakeshop items including breads, Viennoiserie, creams, pies, tarts, cakes, and decorative work, with an approach that’s accessible for the advanced baking and pastry student and professional. The author provides theoretical information along with tested recipes and detailed step-by-step procedures.

With revisions and updates throughout, the book builds from core techniques to complex creations, breaking advanced processes into parts to reinforce concepts and ensure that the final result is understandable.
