Book Description
Excerpt from Ornamental Confectionery and the Art of Baking, in All Its Branches The past century has witnessed a marked advance in the baking and confectionery trades. No doubt this improvement has been brought about by the many valuable books and trade journals that have been published in the interest of our trades men, and it is a noticeable fact that the most successful bakers and confectioners are those that kept up to date by reading the best books and periodicals devoted to their line of work. We take pride in looking back to our first edition of the art or baking, which we published more than twenty years ago. This little book contained 48 pages, and was the first baker's recipe book ever published in this country. It met with immediate success and two editions were issued inside of a year, which convinced us that we had supplied a long felt want.
