Dessert Person Synopsis

"Claire Saffitz is who I pray to every night before bed," says one Instagram follower. Claire is "the queen of relatable content" and is "the Internet's crush" (Mashable); Claire "makes problem solving fun" (HuffPost). In this, her first cookbook, Claire focuses on 125 of her favourite baked goods like Babkallah (a babka-challah mashup), Chewy Malted Brownies, Pull-Apart Scallion Milk Bread Rolls, Double Apple Crumble Cake, and Blackberry-Caramel Tart. She outlines the problems and solutions for each recipe--like what to do if your pie dough cracks (patch it with dough or a quiche flour paste!)--as well as practical do's and don'ts, skill level, prep and bake time, and baking advice to set readers up for success. Just like on YouTube, Claire's tone in the book echoes that of her videos: serious, confident, and wise--while maintaining a quirky curiousnesss.
