Praise for Sarah's previous recipe books:
100 Morning Treats:
"This wonderfully delectable cookbook is chock-full of amazing baked goods—perfect for breakfast, brunch, even afternoon tea—with recipes adaptable for a wide range of skill levels."
—Shelf Awareness
“This volume is a must for bakers at all levels who want to create memorable morning meals."
—Publisher's Weekly
"Kieffer’s ample offerings leave no sugar-topped pastry untouched."
—Booklist
100 Cookies:
"Sarah Kieffer is the one who broke the Internet with her pan-banging cookies, large, chocolate-rich, and rippled like sandbars. And this book offers plenty of bangers, with a whole chapter of crinkly treats for those who like to make some noise on the way to dessert. Baking them all could be your winter challenge."
—The Boston Globe
"Kieffer's book is a baker's baking book, but it's also completely unpretentious. There are cookies for when you just want a good cookie, and more ambitious recipes for when you want to attempt palmiers or break out a culinary torch."
—Food & Wine
Baking for the Holidays:
"In this cheerful collection, Kieffer, founder of The Vanilla Bean Blog, shares dozens of sweet recipes perfect for the holiday season. . . . Avid holiday bakers should put this on their wish list."
