 | | There are fruit desserts, such as Fresh Figs with Caramel and Crème Fraîche; new twists on classic favorites (e.g., Caramel-Roasted Strawberry Shortcakes); ice cream ideas like Caramelized Banana Split-Second Sundae; and desserts where caramel and chocolate come together in a heavenly combination, such as Chocolate-Caramel Crunch Cake. |
 | | Cullen also provides information on the basics, from caramelizing sugar to cleaning up a sticky caramel mess, plus helpful hints, like her "Tips for Making and Serving Layer Cakes." The decadent recipes and unfussy, easy-to-follow instructions would be tempting enough on their own, but the beautiful color photos by Maren Caruso make this volume irresistible. |
 | | I checked right away, and the caramel recipe here calls for a few drops of lemon juice or a little light corn syrup; I was satisfied that the author knew her stuff. |
