andquot;Beranbaum, a veteran cookbook author and baker, divides this worthy tome into four sections: Cakes; Pies, Tarts, and Other Pastries; Cookies and Candy; Breads and Yeast Pastries. ...and#160;Classic recipesandmdash;think pumpkin pecan pieandmdash;are aplenty, but first-time recipes and unusual selections such as the authorandrsquo;s Pink Pearl Lady Cake, Cadillac Cafandeacute;andrsquo;s milk chocolate bread pudding, and an Amish BlueRhu pie make this title a must-have gem.andquot;
