    DELICIOUS!!!!! EVEN FOR NON VEGETARIANS

    I needed a vegan cookbook for my 18 month old daughter who can not tolerate milk or eggs and is underweight. This book is perfect as it has cupcakes, breads and muffins which are exactly geared to her palate and of course I just leave out the nuts if a recipe calls for them as she is to young. What a life saver! Many of the dairy and egg free items I've purchased, even in health food stores are not very good. Every recipe I've made from this book is fairly easy to make and extremely delicious. Even if you aren't a vegetarian you will love these recipes! Thank you, Ms. Patrick-Goudreau!

    Baking made easy (and delicious!)

    I am a total sucker for sweets, but I wanted to cut out dairy and eggs from my diet. This book is a complete, well-written, well-explained guide on how to bake without butter and eggs (which I thought were requirements for baked goods before, but now I know they aren't!).
    I highly recommend the chocolate chip cookies, the chocolate cake, the banana chocolate chip muffins, and the chocolate cheesecake (I see a theme in all my favorites...)!
    I highly recommend this baking book.

    Great Recipes

    This is a fabulous book for vegans; or those who have vegan friends, but still want to bake for them. The recipes taste great, even if you aren't vegan.

    Proud to Own This

    Compared to several other vegan cookbooks I have, I know I can coun't on making each recipe with confidence and satisfaction. Bran Muffins are so comforting and yummy, me & my kids spent a Sunday morning gushing over them, even my 8 year old boy couldn't get enough. Really, everything I have made has been such a success. As a mom, I know I can count on this book to feed my ever-hungry family.

    Perfect!

    This vegan baking book is wonderful, and has so much variety even for the most finiky eaters. There are also many vegan resources and suggestions for replacing traditionally used animal byproducts in baking recepies. Highly recommended!

    This is a terrific easy to follow cookbook...and don't let the word Vegan in the title scare you. The recipes are delicious and contain ingredients that are easy to find. There is a wonderful collection of photographs of the food.

    Nothing special

    I am not that huge of a fan of this cookbook! The pictures naturally look much better than the actual result when making them yourself! I gave this book the stars that I gave because I have not made all of the recipes, but I have made a quite a bit! The pictures do make things look so good, that I am willing to give them a second chance!

    Excellent addition to any cookbook library!

    This is a wonderfully classic, comprehensive baking companion, full of food info and fun, factual tidbits. A great gift for vegan friends, but also good for the omni-cook. This book (includes!) but goes beyond basic American baking. I was most delighted to come across recipes for chocolate babka, horchata, and soft pretzels!

    Whether you are new to vegan baking, or a non-dairy pro, YOU NEED THIS BOOK.

    THEE vegan baking book

    Holy moley, this is a good one! There are many color photos, as well as several pages in the beginning to give you general vegan baking tips (egg substitues for example, some I've never heard of in my 8 years of vegan baking). Very eays to follow format, and the recipes are great! Be sure to try the Chocolate peanut butter pie on pg. 98 - it only takes about 5 ingredients and 15 minutes, and is easily one of the best desserts I've EVER had.

    I have to admit, normally I do not bake. I've just never been very good at it, nor enjoyed it. I purchased this book because the thought of vegan baking intrigued me, and I could NOT BE HAPPIER! The recipes are easy and delicious and the ones I have tried have all come out fantastically! I'm not used to being complimented on my baking, and it's even MORE exciting to see the look on my friends' faces when I tell them not only that I MADE IT, but that it's VEGAN TOO!! This book is going to be my christmas gift for everyone, it's THAT GOOD!!
