Review:

"Pastry chefs Anthony Tassinello and Mary Jo Thorensen have decades of experience creating and thinking about the desserts we serve at the restaurant. Everything in this book has their expansive and exhaustive knowledge behind it." ―Alice Waters, owner of Chez Panisse

"As an avid connoisseur of ice cream and sherbet (aren't we all?), I've long been a fan of Anthony and Mary Jo's frozen creations. In Ice Cream Social, they share their insights, tips, and recipes. This book is sure to be not only a hit, but heavily used in my own home kitchen." ―Art Pollard, Founder and Chocolate Maker, Amano

"Place some rich organic cream and a little sugar in a saucepan. Temper some farm-fresh egg yolks, add a few slices of creativity, a dash of brilliance, a pinch of fun, and blend it all together. You'll end up with one of the most inspiring and sumptuous dessert cookbooks that I've seen in a long time! Mary Jo Thoresen and Anthony Tassinello, two Chez Panisse veterans, have triumphed with this new ice cream cookbook." ―Joanne Weir, James Beard Award-winning author
