Best magazine for desserts!
I received a subscription for this magazine from my brother, and had no idea what to expect. When my first issue came, I was instantly hooked. The photos were beautiful and I wanted to make everything in the magazine. There was an article on cookies and I ended up making 3 of them; they were all wonderful with interesting flavor combos--not the same boring recipes from Food & Wine or Bon Appetit. I continue to be excited by each issue and read it cover to cover. I recommend this magazine for anyone who loves to bake (and eat!).

disappointing magazine
My son is interested in cooking - he thinks he'd like to be a pastry chef. He loves chocolate, so we ordered this magazine. After several months, the first issue arrived, along with the news that they were switching to a 4 issue/year format. At that rate, the subscription costs more than buying off the shelf. On the positive side, some of the recipes look interesting, though we haven't tried any yet.

Poor delivery, poor material.
I agree with the other reviewer who says that the delivery is entirely unpredictable. I waited nearly a year after ordering to receive my first issue.

However, my big complaint is that I feel like I'm reading one big advertisement. There are very few recipes for the amount the magazine costs. Half of the magazine is filled with "new from..." or "useful new..." or "you should try new...". I personally don't find most of those gagets or chocolates or whatever interesting. I buy magazines for recipes. I got the subscription on the recommendation of a friend, but I was foolish to not preview a newsstand copy first.

One could spend the same amount of money on a good chocolate dessert cookbook and be occupied for much, much longer.
