See all formats and editions

    The compelling aroma of fresh, buttery croissants, the delicacy of Savarin au Chantilly, the bliss of the chocolate-mousse Le Pleyel, these are just a few of the specialties that make Parisian boulangeries and pâtisseries the best in the world. Now, in the sequel to her acclaimed Paris Bistro Cooking, Linda Dannenberg presents the gourmet breads and pastries from thirteen of Paris's unsurpassed bakeries and pastry shops.
     PARIS BOULANGERIE-PÂTISSERIE offers more than 70 tempting recipes, including Bombes Amandés (Lemon-Almond Cakes) and Mousse au Caramel et aux Poires (Caramel-Pear Mousse Cake) from Paris's oldest pâtisserie, Stohrer; the signature Délice cake (Chodolate-Cream-and-Chocolate-Macaroon Cake) and lace Florentins from the world-renowned chocolatier Maison du Chocolat; and Pain de Campagne (Hearty Country Loaf) and the classic Gougerés (Giant Gruyére Cheese Puffs) from the archetypal neighborhood bakery Haupois. Linda Dannenberg gathered these one-of-a-kind recipes from the great bakers themselves, and presents them in clear, easy-to-understand recipes specially designed for the American home kitchen.
     More than 150 spectacular photographs and evocative descriptions of the bakeries and the people behind them bring the essence of Paris to your kitchen. PARIS BOULANGERIE-PÂTISSERIE is rounded out with a comprehensive guide to authentic French utensils (although most recipes can be prepared using equipment found in ordinary kitchens), and a directory that includes sources for everything from crystallized violets to baking stones.
     PARIS BOULANGERIE-PÂTISSERIE is the quintessential cookbook featuring the peerless baked goods from the most romantic city in the world.

Wonderful collection!

Reviewed in the United States on January 8, 2011

I purchased this book back in 1999 before we went to Paris at Christmas. It was so much fun to go into the Boulangerie and take notes and then put them in the book. About a year ago a friend of mine moved to Paris so I gave it to her, with a copy of my notes and I just got around to ordering another copy.

These books are worth the price. Many are not but these are wonderful. Every recipe is clear and easy to follow and very authentic.

Don't miss out on a little "Paris" in your home...GET IT!

Not only are the recipes fabulous - but the book itself is absolutely beautiful to look at. It's like a personal visit to France and all the gourmet items available there! Just looking through its pages makes me want to run to the kitchen and creating something yummy!

Great fun with my 2 year old!

I've made a couple of the recipes with my 2 year old son. He loved squishing the dough for the brioche in his hands. Left the dough in the fridge an extra day and still came out excellent. Things don't have to be made exactly as per instructions to come out great. The madeleines were awesome. He had a lot of fun whisking the batter.
A scrum-delicious book.

Too difficult to read

Reviewed in the United States on September 7, 2007

This might be an okay cookbook but the font is so hard to read that I don't find it worth the time when there are other cookbooks out there that are not hard to read. I hope this printer of this book reads this.

I have used this book for the last 10 years. I keep having to order new copies for my kids and friends. The instructions are great. My only complaint is that the ingredients are in very small print.

Agreed but gougere recipe

Reviewed in the United States on June 5, 2022

Beautiful as others say but the recipe gives me fritters not puffs! Is it only me? Too liquid I realized but I had religiously followed the directions. Any others found similar issues in other recipes?

Not just a recipe book.

Love it. Absolutely mouthwatering recipes, sweet and savoury, and lovely descriptions of each bakery, its history and repertoire.

Great baking book!

Reviewed in Canada on July 23, 2014

This book did come with hefty price tag I think, but for me it was worth it. The featured bakeries and characters with their own recipes are wonderful to read and wonderful to re-create in your own kitchen. I bake a lot, and this book has not been a disappointment in any way. If you enjoy reading like me the story behind the recipe then this is the book for you. Mine was second hand, and was in great condition.... I do use and bake from this book nearly every week. ... Its not a big book in volume, but content and photography are big, and I was happy that I bought it.
