A Sweet Trip to Paris

by Elisabeth Perotin

  

€ 24.99 

ISBN: 9781761501609

Far more than a cookbook, A Sweet Trip to Paris is an invitation to explore the irresistible world of French patisserie. From timeless classics such as the Saint-Honore, the Paris-Brest and the chocolate eclair, to creative modern treats like matcha-white chocolate and rose madeleines, Elisabeth Perotin celebrates the full array of French desserts and the fascinating anecdotes behind their creation.

For every one of the 40 recipes, there are charming illustrations and photos, a brief history of the pastry and then a recipe based on historical documents that have been adapted for modern kitchens. As you cook your way through this book, you'll encounter queens and kings such as Marie-Antoinette, Louis XIV and Catherine de' Medici, as well as brilliant culinary minds like Antonin Careme and Auguste Escoffier, who forever changed the art of French baking.

And if you're tempted to visit Paris to taste the best of the city's patisseries, there is a travel guide at the end of the book with Elisabeth's favourite sweet spots by arrondissement.

Whether you're a budding baker, gourmet, history buff or Francophile, this book is your ticket to sweet French delights on every page. Bon voyage!
