crostatas, tarts, crumbles, cobblers and more…

Rustic fruit desserts are traditionally known as the seasonal baking of summer fruits in the form of cobblers, crisps, tarts and so much more.

ABOUT THE AUTHOR & THIS COOKBOOK

I have written this dessert cookbook for those who, like me, love to cook but do not love to bake. There is a saying that cooks who love to cook do not like to bake and bakers who love to bake do not like to cook. This saying perfectly describes me.
