Ever since I was
little I have always preferred vanilla to chocolate (especially when it comes
to ice cream!) After reading this book it truly felt as though it was written
just for me!
I think most people who bake (and cook) take vanilla for granted and see it as boring. Anyone read Fifty Shades of Grey? Christian describes regular sex as 'vanilla'. That's such an insult to vanilla. As it's so much more then regular!
Yes, vanilla is expensive, but a little goes a long way. They're many ways to get full use out of vanilla bean pods that I wasn't aware of until this book!

The 6 chapters are broken down into breakfasts, cakes &
pies, cookies & bars, candies & confections, custards & creams, and
last but not least drinks!
On my 'must try' list from this book:

I have a real love for baking books so it's rare for me to
find fault with them by just reading them. The real truth comes from baking
recipes from the book! So, watch this space as I bake my way through my
bookshelf! ;0)
