Each recipe in <i>Vintage Cakes</i> is a confectionary stroll down memory lane. After sifting through her treasure trove of cookbooks and recipe cards, master baker and author Julie Richardson selected the most inventive, surprising, and just plain delicious cakes she could find. The result is a delightful and delectable time capsule of American baking, with recipes spanning a century. <p/>With precise and careful guidance, Richardson guides home bakers--whether total beginners or seasoned cooks--toward picture-perfect meringues, extra-creamy frostings, and lighter-than-air chiffons. A few of the dreamy cakes that await: a chocolatey Texas Sheet Cake as large and abundant as its namesake state, the boozy Not for Children Gingerbread Bundt cake, and the sublime Lovelight Chocolate Chiffon Cake with Chocolate Whipped Cream. With recipes to make Betty Crocker proud, these nostalgic and foolproof sweets rekindle our love affair with cakes.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>"Bakers will invent reasons to whip up the treats in <i>Vintage Cakes</i>, coached by Julie Richardson's precise and enthusiastic directions." <i><b>--Shelf Awareness </b></i> <p/>"The cakes in this book somehow manage to seem fresh and new while simultaneously feeling familiar and immediately lovable....Whether you are considered to be The Cake Baker among your friends or just love a good dessert at the end of the day, there's a recipe or three in this book that will make you smile." <i><b>--The Kitchn</b></i> <p/>"In Julie Richardson's capable hands we are led back in time, down the cake walk.
