Fantastic gf baking:
I bought this a few days ago. So far I made cinnamon rolls and yellow cake. The flavor is excellent, but what impresses me most is the texture. Really good recipes.

Just the Lemon Cake Recipe Alone Makes This Book a Winner!:
So far everything that my wife has made from the recipes in this book has been a hit with our family. The lemon cake (on the book's cover) has become a particular favorite. My wife even claimed third place at a church cake contest with this gem of a cake (few knew it was gluten-free). Having been on a gluten-free diet for a couple of years now I can tell you that it is a real joy to find a cookbook with so many winning recipes.
