Who doesn't love tiny, adorable, tasty baked goods? I always wanted an Easy Bake Oven but never got one. Now I have a toaster over, mini baking pans and dishes, and this cookbook. I'm making way more amazing things than I would have in that Easy Bake Oven.
Tiny Bakes offers a delightful array of mini desserts that are not only visually appealing but also bring a unique twist to traditional treats. The creativity and attention to detail in their designs are truly commendable, making each tiny cake a work of art. The variety of designs and ideas for mini desserts is what sets Tiny Bakes apart. From miniature cupcakes with intricate decorations to tiny layered cakes that look almost too good to eat, their menu is a feast for the eyes. If you're looking for something to impress at a special occasion or simply want to treat yourself to a visually stunning dessert, Tiny Bakes has you covered. However, it's important to note that creating these tiny cakes can be quite labor-intensive, as I discovered. The level of detail in the designs means that a significant amount of time and effort goes into each piece. While the end result is undoubtedly charming, it's worth considering the trade-off between the visual appeal and the time investment.
In conclusion, Tiny Bakes is a go-to destination for those seeking adorable and creative mini desserts. The craftsmanship and artistry are evident in each piece, making them a delightful choice for special occasions.
This is a really fun cookbook, full of really fun tiny bakes. Not all practical, but all very cute!!
This is a really interesting cookbook. The recipes are unique and the photos are great. The recipes are also easy to follow and lots of fun. I would recommend this! Special Thank You to Jennifer Ziemons, Quarto Publishing and NetGalley for allowing me to read a complimentary copy in exchange for an honest review.
This book is precious. The recipes are fun and inventive. Who doesn't love things when they are cute and tiny?
This cookbook does a great job of providing accurate measurements, wonderful pictures and helpful tips and instructions. Even though I really enjoyed looking through all of the recipes, I truly doubt I will make many of these. First of all, it's a practicality factor for me. But if I were the person to make tiny yummy food, this would be the cookbook I'd refer to. It's quite well done.
Thank you to NetGalley for the opportunity to review this book.
I thought the book was a cute idea . I did enjoy looking at the pictures and felt that the author was very creative. I do not think many people would have the time to do these recipes.
I just reviewed Tiny Bakes by Jennifer Ziemons. #TinyBakes #NetGalley
I enjoyed reading and look up recipes throughout this book. It had great ideas for tiny dessert and baked goods foods. The recipes were easy to follow and had pictures that showed the end results.
And tips on how to make them.
I received a complimentary copy via Netgalley. This is my honest unbiased opinions.
This is just the absolute cutest!!! And now I need, and can, bake everything tiny! The recipes may be baked tiny but they are huge in flavor and imagination! Super cute
What a delightful recipe book! I was mesmerised by the charm of these miniature cakes and bite-size celebration recipe bakes. I can only imagine you would need a lot of patience and a steady hand for some of these recipes but it looks like a lot of fun and the results are amazing. Ideal for ideas for any celebration: children's party; afternoon tea; Christmas. I loved so many of the recipes but the Salted Caramel Bars/Bears and the mini cakes and pies stood out the most for me. Thanks you to Net Galley for an arc in exchange for an honest review.
Anyone who loves miniature treats and loves to bake will want to pick up a copy of Tiny Bakes: Delicious Mini Cakes, Pies, Cookies, Brownies, and More , by award-winning baker and expert on miniature baking, Jennifer Ziemons. This fun cookbook will inspire everyone to bake treats for every occasion that will be loved by everyone, including children.
There are dozens of recipes for adorable miniature treats, mostly sweet. The recipes are written in the traditional manner with the ingredients listed first, followed by step-by-step instructions that are concise and easy to follow. Each recipe also includes notes and comments at the beginning of each recipe. There are basic recipes such as classic brownies or salted caramel bars, but they have been elevated to different levels and decorated so they are colorful and adorable. Many of the treats are perfect for children’s parties or holiday parties. It seems most people would rather eat several different types of one bite goodies than have to choose only one.
There are beautiful, professional photographs of the recipes, and the author makes them not only look mouthwatering, but also colorful, cute, and appealing.
All told, bakers everywhere will want to try some of these yummy recipes (multiple ones because they are very small). The recipes are suitable for any occasion and are absolutely fun.
Special thanks to NetGalley for supplying a review copy of this book.
Though these might be impractical to make, I appreciate that these recipes are creative and innovative. They look fun and bakers may enjoy creating these despite the additional efforts that making such tiny bakes might incur.
Adored this book! So much easier to follow than I had thought - in my mind I'd overcomplicated making tiny things!
The photos really help with the visualisation, and the breakdown into categories makes it so easy for you to bake your favourite miniature food!
Adorable playbook showing how to make lovely looking desserts in miniature. I might never make sweets this dainty and delicate but it sure as well is great to look at them.
If you want to make small individual portions of desserts, you will love this book. There are lots of photos showing what the finished item should look like. The directions are easy to read and ingredients are not hard to find, The layout makes it easy to find whatever type of dessert you want to make today. Great book.
Simply adorable. Five stars. OK, so all the artificial colorings, decorations and sugar may not be the healthiest of foods to ingest . . . but for a special occasion, here's an engaging book that will spark the interest of bakers of all ages.
Colorful critter cake pops, cookies, pies, and cakes. They're all here. Five stars for layout, photographs, recipes, and helpful tips. A one-of-a-kind resource. Oh, and did we say adorable?
I’ve always admired those tiny bakes and tiny cookery videos on social media platforms such as Facebook etc. Now I can create my own cute tiny bakes with this step by step cookery book.
I had a look through the book with my youngest son who loves to bake and we’ve saved our favourite recipes and will be trying them out once I’ve saved the ingredients for them. It’ll be a lovely bonding session with my little boy and a distraction from his first love- gaming.
If you've been inspired by some of the tiny bakes on social media, this is for you. They might look intricate, but Jennifer has made her examples easy to achieve. There's a good mixture of bakes to enjoy.
Wow! These were all so cute!! There’s just something so satisfying about mini items!! My friend loves baking and I plan to buy this for her as soon as it is available! It’s just so adorable!
A very clever book with some brilliant baking ideas. Clear instructions that make a stunning bake look fat simpler than you would first think and beautiful photography.
It would be great if there could be alternatives to switch out ingredients for gluten free, dairy free and others.
4 ⭐️ Thanks to Netgalley, Jennifer Ziemons and Quarto for an ARC in return for an honest review.
I received a copy of this book through NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.
This is a cute book! While it's not necessarily super practical this book is full of tiny desserts like macarons, pies, and cupcakes. There's recipes for a variety of sweets in smaller than standard portions for additional whimsy. It also feels a little less intimidating approaching some of these recipes in their smaller size. Overall a fun find!
