Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - A must have
This book is excellent for any aspiring baker. I have tried many recipes and they work beautifully. I am an amateur cook, and I love Julia Child, this is one of her books that I use the most when I want to treat people I love. It does take time and effort, but the results are amazing.



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Great fountain book
This book includes wonderful explanations of the ingredients, methods, and techniques for bakers, plus interesting applications in unique recipes. You'll find all the recipes for classic doughs for breads, pies, tarts, cakes, and cookies. The front section explains the chemistry behind successful baking which I found extremely helpful. Creating exceptional bakery is all in the details. Having said that, this book is really for the purist who wants to know the nuts and bolts of professional quality baking. Many of the recipes are laborious, time consuming, and take more than one day to prepare. In addition, some recipes absolutely require a heavy-duty mixer with a dough hook. If you're fascinated with baking and enjoy spending hours in the kitchen, then this book is for you. Follow each step carefully and you'll produce professional quality, sumptuous, gourmet bakery. My suggestion would be to first check the book out of your local library. Then buy it if you like what you see. On a practical side, the book is a bit large and heavy for working in the kitchen, but nothing is perfect.



Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - A "good-to-have"....
I bought this cookbook for its 'fame'. It's more for the sake of having it, if you know what I mean. However, I must confess that even since I've bought it I have not used it, not even once. But I know if one day I run into problem in baking, this will be the book from which I get my help.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Baking With Julia
This cookbook was everything I wanted. It's detailed, explained and illustrated beautifully. It's a companion book to the PBS series of the same name and it's perfect. The recipes are varied and run a wide range of baked goods. I consider it a must for any serious bread and pastry baker.
