Hi, this is Karen with WTI and this is Favorite Cakes by William Sonoma. It comes with 31 different kinds of recipes, but also comes with tips for troubleshooting, like burn top or night rising, air pockets or over mix, which is very common. I'm not a professional baker, so I wanted a book that it was simple, but at the same time giving me really nice recipes that I can improve my baking. And this book was it. It was really simple, but at the same time was giving me new recipes that I never tried before and new ways of doing buttercream, but at the same time versatile. And this was the blackberry pound cake. It was just perfect between the buttercream and the Christmas of the cake. It was just delicious. And I used the same buttercream to use for the cupcakes. The smoothness of the buttercream, it was just perfect for decoration. And as you can see, I did many. And that's my point of view.
