Review Quotes




"One of the most prolific and awarded bakers in America has hit it out of the park with Zoë Bakes Cakes. Zoë François walked into my life almost twenty-five years ago and I told someone at the time, that lady is a star. Now I think I might have undersold her. This is the only cake book you will ever need. Superb recipes, clear and concise teaching, and a treasure trove of inspiration for beginners and experts."--Andrew Zimmern, chef, teacher, and author

"Zoë François's love language is cakes. Studded, soaked, or stacked, she elevates the cake-baking game. From breakfast to birthday--and every occasion in between--Zoë's artful, yet accessible cakes are a revelation. If you're a master baker, an experimental baker looking to learn a few new tricks, orjust someone who loves eating cake, this glorious gem is for you."--Candace Nelson, founder of Sprinkles Cupcakes and judge on Netflix's Sugar Rush

This is the perfect baking book!"--David Lebovitz, author of My Paris Kitchen and Drinking French

"Not only is this book expertly presented with amazing cake recipes for any mood or occasion (I see Hummingbird Cake!) and technique tutorials to ensure the home baker's success, but it's a true love letter to cake.

I dare you to not fall in love with Zoe Bakes...her recipes are approachable and delicious, and her energy is palpable (check out her Instagram account). I’m excited to up my cake game with this book.
