Dessert of the Day (Williams-Sonoma): 365 recipes for every day of the year

Great gift I gave my daughter for Christmas! Cute that there is a recipe for every birthday. Very pleased!

This book was so good I bought a hard back copy. The Amazon warehouse had one for half price which was just like new at half the price and free shipping with Prime. This has awesome recipes that beginners and experts can make. I have baked a long time and you can read recipes and know a good one from a bad one from experience. This is all good.

I bought a bunch of these here on Amazon for a few dollars each for my daughters who expressed interest in learning how to entertain and cook for themselves and company, most of the books in the series are great for just this purpose, being a Disabled Veteran on a fixed income I really wouldn’t want to pay the full retail price and judging by the sheer abundance of used copies for next to nothing I am not the only one who didn’t. TLDR great when bought used recommended at a used price.

So there are a ton of recipes in this book. They vary from simple to somewhat complicated. I kind of wish I had the hard cover version instead of the kindle version. But that is not an issue with the book it means I actually really like it. I think just about anyone could find quite a few recipes in here to try. I know I bookmarked a bunch. Now I just have to find time to make them!

I purchased this book as a Mother’s Day gift for someone. Before wrapping it, I browsed a few recipes to be sure it was something the recipient would enjoy. I had to make myself put it down. In just the few first pages I found a dozen recipes that I could see myself making. Opened to a random midway page and still saw recipe after recipe that I loved. Purchased a copy for myself and can’t wait to delve into it. A really great addition to my cookbook collection. It’s been a while since I’ve found something worth adding!

Pros: Another quality "365 Days of " production. Tried out about 10 recipes already, all of them came out great. The book is gorgeous, and the pages are made out of top notch, glossy paper. Love, love Williams-Sonoma books. Cons: Although there are many stunning photos in this book, I still wish there were more, preferably one for each recipe. I imagine that's is driven by production budget limitations.

I love all of these 365 books. LOVE THEM! I have bought several of them and nearly every recipe turns out amazing. I keep telling my friends to buy them. So many ideas and things I might not otherwise try to make.

In love with these W&S 365 cookbooks. This one doesn't disappoint, The only thing I'm not crazy about is when the ingredient list says frozen pie dough or frozen puff pastry but I just go to a different book that I own and find the recipe for said - ready to eat ingredient.

(y ponerse como una bola por ello jajajaj) Hecho en falta algunas fotografías más, pero es perfecto. Si tenéis que hacer un regalo a algún amigo cocinillas no dudeis, le encantará!

I absolutely love this series, and this addition did not disappoint. My favorite thing about all of the "of the day" books is the breakdown to seasons. We try to eat seasonally, and this breakdown, while not perfect, is an excellent start! This book is full of very tasty desserts that we are working our way through. I am even impressed with the selection of more healthy options.

Eigentlich brauchte ich nicht wirklich ein Buch mit Nachtisch-Ideen, sondern suchte nach Büchern mit Fotos der Fotografin Erin Kunkel (die diese Reihe bebildert hat). In diesem Buch finden sich aber nun Desserts im allerweitesten Sinne, von richtigen Torten und Kuchen über Eis, Muffins, Crumbles, Pies, Crèmes, Resteverwertung anderer Süßspeisen, gebackenem oder gebratenem Obst bis hin zu süßen Getränken. Die Auswahl ist also so vielfältig, dass wirklich jeder mehrere Rezepte finden dürfte, und theoretisch auch >jeden Tag< etwas Süßes zubereiten könnte (gut, aber wer will das wirklich?). Die Rezepte sind größtenteils einfach bis einen Ticken fordernder, wobei sich das meist auf die Zubereitungszeit und weniger auf ausgefallene Zubereitungsmethoden bezieht. Es gibt aber auch viele Rezepte, die man wirklich auf die Schnelle zubereiten kann. Die Rezepte sind grob saisonal sortiert. Einziges Manko: Die Mengen sind sehr unterschiedlich, mal kommen eben auch ganze Blechkuchen oder Käsekuchen etc. heraus, die man bei einer kleinen Familie natürlich nicht mehr streng als "Nachtisch" bezeichnen kann. Vorteil: Es bleibt dann mal für den nächsten Tag etwas übrig. Nachteil: Einige dieser Rezepte fallen halt nicht die Kategorie "schnell zubereiteter Nachtisch", sondern müssen teils einige Zeit vor dem Abendessen begonnen werden, weil sie kalt gestellt werden müssen oder mehrere Schritte nacheinander erforderlich sind. Dafür gibt es aber eben auch "schnell zusammengewürfelte" Rezepte wie Ricotta mit Blutorange, Pistazien und Honig, bei denen wie hier wirklich nur die Zutaten zusammengerührt bzw. angerichtet werden. Für Süßmäuler auf jeden Fall den Preis wert!

Great dessert recipe book, only downside would be not enough photos (if you prefer visuals of EVERY single recipe in a book then this book is not for you) Also some recipes for example, ice cream, are for those who own an ice cream maker (which I don not) That aside, the recipes are sorted by month and take advantage of seasonal ingredients etc. This book would be a lovely gift for any one who loves to bake!

Bought this as a Christmas present they loved it. Nicely detailed and good graphics very well made.
