Synopsis:

A complete guide to building versatile and creative desserts, The Dessert Architect offers valuable insight into developing a well-balanced dessert menu and modern plating techniques while featuring 50 detailed multi-component recipes that can be mixed and matched for endless combinations. This landmark work offers suggestions for pairing beverages with desserts, sources for ingredients, and an overview of essential tools and equipment. Its wealth of recipes is thoughtfully organized by main ingredient for easy retrieval. Full-color photographs of each completed dessert ― along with step-by-step process shots ― serve as a visual reference for the major techniques used in the recipes. The Dessert Architect is an invaluable resource for professional pastry programs and a source of inspiration for chefs worldwide.

About the Author: Robert Wemischner is a pastry chef and culinary educator whose long-standing interest in the flavor potential of ingredients has culminated in The Dessert Architect, his fourth culinary book.

For the past 18 years, he has taught baking and pastry at Los Angeles Trade Technical College.
