Pastry Paris: In Paris, Everything Looks Like Dessert

I loved this book. The photographs are amazing, and also have many interesting stories about french pastry. It is a very good idea for a gift for someone who adore french pattiserie and design.

Nice photography; however, subject is a little questionable.

This is a book that you would look at one time, put on a shelf and leave there. There are no recipes and very few words.

This book just makes me happy. Wonderful idea and execution... now I just want to go to France and eat my way through Paris!

Expert graphic designer Susan Hockbaum juxtaposes Paris' most luscious treasures, often in onsite settings, in a whimsical way that reflects their design, colors, ingenuity.Visual wit abounds. Look for sublime repetition of forms in Paris' monuments and Paris' pastries - perfect for the armchair traveler.The one drawback - it will make you drool and run out of the house searching for something delectable and impossibly Frenchie.You have been warned.Enjoy!

I devoured this book the moment I got it home. Stunning images are just the beginning of this tasty treatise. Insightful and thorough, I learned a lot about things I thought I knew well already.

I gave this book to a friend who is Parisian, and she howled with laughter. It is very charming.

Great book!
