 Baking encyclopedia!Apr 09, 2010
It is the greatest (in terms of organization, text and illustrations) and the most comprehensive book for everyone who is serious about baking.
 great book for the avid bakerMar 20, 2010
This book is well written. Recipes are easy to follow and pictures encourage one to bake. May be a little intimidating for first time bakers (novices). I guess that is why the title says "advanced' bread and pastry!. On the other hand, if you are interested in "upgrading" your basic baking and pastry skills, this is indeed the book to buy! Sure is cheaper than enrolling in a baking and pastry class. Great book overall!
Bread making booksMar 10, 2010
For the serious bread maker this book is packed with great information. I am considering moving from home baking to commercial baking and this will be one of my main reference and teaching books that I will use.
A must have!!!!!!!!!!!!Feb 11, 2010
I teach baking and pastry and if I had my choice of textbook, Advanced Bread and Pastry would be it.
It is very thorough, has a lot of technology and beautiful pictures.
A must have for any serious baker/pastry professional.
Wonderful text for pro and home baker alikeFeb 02, 2010
As stated in the title, this is an "advanced" book based on a "professional approach" to baking. But don't let the title frighten you if you're still learning how to bake. I'm not a pro but have accumulated a small library of baking books which I have study in an effort to learn the craft. No book I have read has made such a profound improvement in my baking as Michel Suas' Advanced Bread and Pasty. If you're a home baker and want to improve you product, buy this book, a scale, a mixer and take some time to study and learn.
