Grandbaby Cakes: Modern Recipes, Vintage Charm, Soulful Memories is
the debut cookbook from sensational food writer, Jocelyn Delk
Adams. Since founding her popular recipe blog Grandbaby Cakes in
2012, Adams has been putting fresh twists on old favorites. Adams
has earned praise from critics and the adoration of bakers both
young and old for her easygoing advice, rich photography, and the
heartwarming memories she shares of her family's generations-old
love of baking. As a child, Adams and her family would routinely
embark on the ten-hour journey from their home in Chicago to
Winona, Mississippi. There, she would watch her grandmother,
affectionately nicknamed Big Mama, bake and develop delicious,
melt-in-your-mouth desserts. From blooming tree-picked fruit to
farm-raised eggs and fresh-churned butter, Big Mama used what was
readily available to invent completely original treats. Adams
treasured the moments when her mother, aunt, and Big Mama would
bring her into the kitchen to let her dabble in the process as a
rite of passage. Big Mama's recipes became the fabric of their
family heritage. Grandbaby Cakes is Adams's love note to her
family, thanking those who came before and passing on this touching
tradition with 50 brilliant cakes. Grandbaby Cakes pairs charming
stories of Big Mama's kitchen with recipes ranging from classic
standbys to exciting adventures--helpfully marked by degree of
difficulty--that will inspire your own family for years to come.
Adams creates sophisticated flavor combinations based on Big Mama's
gorgeous centerpiece cakes, giving each recipe something familiar
mixed with something new. From pound cakes and layer cakes to sheet
cakes and "baby" cakes (cupcakes and cakelettes), Grandbaby Cakes
delivers fun, hip recipes perfect for any celebration. Readers will
love this cookbook for its eclectic and bold recipes steeped in
equal parts warm Southern charm and fresh Midwestern flavors. Not
only will home bakers be able to make staples like yellow cake and
icebox cake exactly how their grandmothers did, but they'll also be
preparing impressive innovations, like the Pineapple Upside-Down
Hummingbird Pound Cake and the Fig-Brown Sugar Cake. Grandbaby
Cakes is a collection for both new-aged and traditional bakers, but
mostly it's for anyone who wants a fresh, modern take on classic
recipes as well as cakes full of heart and soul.
