Desserts are one of the things that Southern cooks do best. Now, the Editors of Southern Living bring you their very best of two sweet-tooth staples in this Special Collector’s Edition— Cakes & Pies . Organized by season, to help you take advantage of what’s available and what’s fresh, and to prepare for the holidays and special events, are recipes such as the Praline-Cream Cheese King Cakes, for your upcoming Bayou bash, the Ultimate Chocolate Pie, for pretty much any time, and our (we think) world-famous Hummingbird Cake, celebrating its 40th anniversary in our cookbooks. Cakes & Pies includes 132 recipes along with gorgeous full-color photography that will help you become a master baker. We also include our favorite tips and tricks from the famed Southern Living Test Kitchen to help you perfect your technique in no time.
