  • Love love love
I genuinely love this book! It has so many amazing recipes to try. And the quality of the book is perfect for displaying it. Highly recommend getting it if you like baking! Only problem I had was the bottom corner came a little bent, but it’s not that big of a deal for me personally, but I would have been annoyed if I were gifting it to someone, so I thought I’d share. ... show more

  • So many but different
I made the first recipe in the book, the almond cookies from Iran. They're delicious and very different from any other cookies I've made. I bought this book because I enjoy trying new things. This is definitely the book for that. There are so many recipes and a lot of recipes also have other variations of the recipe. I usually buy books based on how many photos of food are in the reviews but this one i didn't want to wait. You always know if people are enjoying it if there is photographic evidence that they cooked something! I will mention that photos are limited within the cookbook, which in my opinion can make it difficult when there is such a large volume of recipes because you have to read through every ingredient then to decide which one to start with. Maybe that's why I just made the first recipe. If there were more photos I would five star but my brain can't handle so many options without visual assistance. ... show more
