"You can't always have Christine Moore around to explain her perfect blood orange tarts, but Little Flower may be close enough."—Jonathan Gold, Pulitzer Prize–winning food writer One of California's most acclaimed bakers is sharing her very best recipes, all adapted and carefully tested for the home cook. Extensively photographed and rich with Christine Moore's down-home warmth and wisdom, it inspires home cooks to make her rustically beautiful, always delicious cookies, cakes, pastries, savory baked goods, breads, rolls, bars, puddings, and so much more. Little Flower Baking is beautifully packaged in a hardcover book with embossing, ribbon, and quality paper. And every recipe has its own gorgeous photo—a rarity in cookbooks, and a great boon for the home baker. Christine Moore is the owner of the Little Flower Candy Co. and the chef/owner of Little Flower café and Lincoln restaurant, both in Pasadena, California. A pastry chef who trained in Paris and Los Angeles, Moore is also author of Little Flower: Recipes from the Cafe, which was one of Food52's 16 Best Cookbooks of 2012 and won praise from Jonathan Gold, David Lebovitz, the Wall Street Journal, and the Los Angeles Times. She sells her candy nationwide and has developed a passionate following for her simple, exceptionally flavorful baked goods and café food at both restaurants. Collaborating on the recipes is Little Flower's pastry chef, Cecilia Leung. Acclaimed food photographer Staci Valentine is the book's photographer.
