United Cakes of America: Recipes Celebrating Every State
Loving cake is a natural part of Warren Brown's constitution. Now, in order to form a more perfect union of flour, eggs, butter, and sugar, he's offering his unique take on classic dessert recipes from all fifty states, plus Puerto Rico and Washington, D.C. Starting out with Baked Alaska (what else?), Brown tours the whole country, updating regional confections like King Cake (Louisiana), Lady Baltimore Cake (South Carolina), Mud Cake (Mississippi), and Key Lime Pie (Florida). There are official state desserts (Maryland's Smith Island Cake; Massachusetts' Boston Cream Pie) and unofficial favorites (New York-style Cheesecake; St. Louis Gooey Butter Cake), as well as an ovenful of brand-new baked treats that Brown has created to honor specific states' agricultural bounty (Avocado Cupcakes for California; Huckleberry Cake for Idaho). Eye-catching photos, informative sidebars, and a separate section on buttercream frostings complete the mix.

Published by Abbey , 6 years ago
I love this book because it goes through the US and talks about different state’s cakes. There are so many cakes that I’ve never even heard of before and I am excited to give it a go! I hope my coworkers enjoy cake!
