EAT DESSERT FIRST HB: The Red Hat Society Dessert Cookbook

The Red Hat Society cooks are back! With a beautiful full-color dessert cookbook filled with enthusiasm, humor, and really good desserts.

"Life is uncertain, eat dessert first!" This beautiful cookbook maintains that you should "Eat Dessert Always!" Even the Red Hatters who no longer bother to cook regular meals will still strut their stuff with chocolate, meringues, pastries, and cakes.

Compiled by Red Hatters from around the country, this luscious collection ranges from simple to sublime, delightful to decadent. Beautiful full-color photos will inspire cooks of all ages and tempt cookbook buyers to add this book to their collection. More than 200 recipes include cakes, pies, candies, breads, puddings, cookies, and much more. For the non-cooks who still want to impress, there will be a special section of non-cook, easy-to-assemble desserts guaranteed to succeed.

The Red Hat Society Cookbook, published in the fall of 2006, was a huge success. Publisher's Weekly said, "The fun spirit of this cheery cookbook makes it a winner." The Red Hat Society Dessert Cookbook contains all new recipes; none are duplicated from the earlier cookbook.

The Red Hat Society began in 2001 when Sue Ellen Cooper began giving her friends a red hat and a copy of "Warning," a poem which depicts an older woman in purple clothing with a red hat. One day these friends decided to go out to tea together dressed in purple dresses and red hats. The tea was a success, they invited other friends, and today the Red Hat Society has more than 1 million members.
