Summary:

Baking is fun. Really, it is! Not only does it make your kitchen smell wonderful, but anything you bake at home will taste a zillion times better than something you buy. This collection of truly mouth-watering recipes is for anyone who thinks that their oven looms before them, as dark as an abyss, waiting to devour, doom and ruin anything and everything that dares enter its sacred domain. The Clueless Baker includes more than 100 tried, tested and true baking recipes as well as all the basic baking know-how needed, including the Essential Clueless Baking Cupboard, The Eleven-Step Baking Program, and emergency substitutions and equivalents. It's amazing what a great collection of delicious (and reliable) recipes, a good attitude and simple, no-nonsense tips and hints will do for the fearful baker. And, at the end of it all, there is something delicious to eat -- a scrumptious treat you made by yourself -- and isn't this, after all, the point of baking?
