A delicious introduction to Italian desserts., 6 Aug 2002
By glouise - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: La Dolce Vita (Paperback)
This was the first book I bought on Italian Desserts (the hard cover edition)and it is the one I reach for more often than not. Although not a huge book, I feel the author has done an amazing job of giving a tour of Italian desserts. Along with covering everything from cakes, cookies, tarts, frozen dessert, fruit, cheese and dessert wines to name a few chapters, Michele Scicolone as an author is a joy to read. Each recipe has an introduction, nothing to time consuming to read. She may tell of the origin of a dessert or about the people whose recipe she is using or a helpful hint when preparing the dessert. Throught out the book you will find tips and hints that are like being in the kitchen with someone standing by to answer questions as they pop up. Each recipe I have used has been a great success and has not needed any alterations to make it "work." Basically La Dolce Vita is a book with clear and concise directions given in the warm hearted tone of friend sharing a recipe.

No Photos, 12 Jan 2012
By DukeMD69 - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: La Dolce Vita (Paperback)
I expected this highly rated book to have some basic classic recipes. I wanted to supplement some recipes I had for some typical Holiday baking. It had some fancy Italian names for a few esoteric dishes. But, when I looked for recipes for bracciole, pizzelles, quaresimale, and zuccotti, none could be found. There were no photos at all. Nothing to whet the appetite. A waste.
