"cupcakes!" by Elinor Klivans
Goodness, do I expect too much of the publishing world? This was the second cupcake book in a row that had limited number of pictures! If you're telling me to do some specific unique tricky move with frosting or decorations, I want to see what YOU think the end result should be.
The recipes were interesting, but far too repetitive. Jazz it up a bit, give me a few more different kinds. I can take a basic structure and flavor it up myself, so go crazy with the different kinds of cupcakes, oh cookbook makers!
There were a few pictures, maybe one every 7 recipes, but far too few for me. Back to the library it goes, and definitely not on my wishlist.
Heh - checking amazon, I see whole gobs of people who agree with me re: pictures. There was so much wasted page space in this book, they really could have had 20 more pictures easily, and 50 more with some real editing.
