Praise
“There is no other word but delicious.”
—Kirkus Reviews, starred review
“More than mere confection, A Fine Dessert is a rich and satisfying journey across four centuries…simply delectable.”
—School Library Journal, starred review
“A delicious book about a delicious treat.”
—Booklist, starred review
“This is classic Jenkins in its seemingly casual, observation-rich text; the folkloric structure of the process makes the prose rhythmic and readable, while the changing settings mark the significant historical and industrial shifts over the centuries.”
—Bulletin, starred review
