It is a monumental reference work containing nearly 500 professionally formatted recipes covering all aspects of the pastry arts. Authored by award winning pastry chefs Michael Zebrowski and Michael Mignano. Foreword by Ron Ben Israel, Photography by Battman Review: Excellent Little black book of Pastry chefs. - This book is for the experienced baker and advanced home baker who love to bake. The last step dictates which temperature bakes, and it really depends on what kind of convection or conventional oven you are baking. As bakers, we test it by instinct, look, feel and if it comes out clean when you insert a toothpick, bbq stick, etcetera. These recipes really taste great, for some baked goods like cookies, if you go an extra mile and effort like refrigerating scooped cookie dough on baking sheets overnight. This allows the flavors to develop and meld together. Next day, bake these cookies. Yummy!!! As bakers, we take many factors when baking these baked goods, humidity, the ambient temperature of the kitchen and workplace, the oven's temperature, ingredients used and how they behave, etcetera. This book is so comprehensive in recipes by these 2 awarded pastry chefs. This is probably one of the few books you need on your kitchen cookbook collection or can be stored in your kitchen. You know what's really funny about this book- it is not little black book because it acts like own, but this is a huge black book for pastry chefs. Review: READING FIRST 10 PAGES OF BOOK IS CRITICAL - I echo all of the great reviews this book has. This book is written by two French Chefs. I received this book as a gift and I can't wait to try some of these divine recipes. In looking through the book, many recipes call for gelatin sheets and within the first 10 pages of explanations it says they weigh 2.5 grams per sheet and all of the recipes need to be measured by weight, not volume (cups) so a good digital scale is crucial to have in order to use this cookbook properly. They have two columns on each recipe, one for US measurements and one for metric. Another recipe item referred to mixing the ingredients FROM 1 dough packet (De'Trempe) and a few more French terminologies like that. Hopefully, I can find what I am looking for when researching them. All in all though, most of the recipes I can understand and I love the book and I even look forward to the more challenging recipes to perhaps learn something I did not know. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #622,418 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #391 in Pastry Baking (Books) | | Customer Reviews | 4.8 out of 5 stars 507 Reviews | ## Images ![The Pastry Chef's Little Black Book - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81jAHCB1NiL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Media Format** options. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent Little black book of Pastry chefs. *by E***. on May 7, 2018* This book is for the experienced baker and advanced home baker who love to bake.

Love it! I mostly purchased this book because I needed another pastry book that didn't have the same old recipes. So I bought it, expecting to have a small almost novel sized book. I was shocked when it came to my door and turned out to be a textbook, but I couldn't be happier. The amount of recipes and their variety of them is amazing. In addition to the style, how the pages are set up makes it very easy to read, plan out, and use. Especially if you're making a product that utilizes only this books recipes! ## Frequently Bought Together - The Pastry Chef's Little Black Book - The Pastry Chefs Little Black Book VOLUME 2 --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.ae/products/53463536-the-pastry-chefs-little-black-book](https://www.desertcart.ae/products/53463536-the-pastry-chefs-little-black-book) --- *Product available on Desertcart United Arab Emirates* *Store origin: AE* *Last updated: 2026-09-25*
