Review "Tessa Huff has a way with cake. In her hands, butter, sugar, flour, and eggs become something more than mere ingredients in a recipe, and cake is elevated to art form. I could happily feast for days on just her photographs of these creations, but Tessa's companionable presence and quiet insistence throughout this book that I, too, can make these beauties for myself pulls me straight into the kitchen. Too pretty to eat? Nah. Grab a fork." ( Emma Christensen, Recipe Editor for The Kitchn) "Stacked tall and frosted to perfection, Tessa elevates the art of layer cakes to new heights.
