Desserts To Live For

I have made four recipes from this book so far and each one has been a winner. I love the good-for-you ice cream (cashews, dates, berries, plant-based milk, vanilla powder) and the fudge brownies and other choclate desserts I've tried are amazing. You know something is great when a sugar-addicted 10 year-old raves about them, which happened each time I tried one on the daughter of my neighbor. The author explains how sugar and bad fats go right to your belly, but the fiber in fruits prevents that because digestion is slow. You don't have the guilt you do from standard desserts because every ingredient is healthful. I'm so impressed that anyone could come up with so many delights, and the photography is gorgeous. Kudos to Talia Furhman, chef extrordinaire! I've already purchased this book for a friend and I take it with me when I travel. I just awed another friend. It will be my secret weapon at family gatherings when I'm pressured to give in to unhealthy treats. One need never feel deprived once this book is in hand.

This is my second review. I love this cookbook! I recently made the thumbprint cookies and the chocolate peanut butter bread. Delicious! Best of all, is that all the ingredients fit the nutritarian lifestyle. You never have to worry about finding a substitute for a non compliant ingredient. Thanks again for all of your hard work in creating these great desserts!

Not even sure if I rated it, but give it 5 stars PLEASE!!

I made both of these today with my 13 year old granddaughter. I had all the ingredients already and both recipes were delicious! They were easy to make and got 5 thumbs up from a teenager, as well as my son, daughter and husband. All the recipes look delicious and best of all you can feel good about eating any one of them! Looking forward to making many, many more from this book! Thank you, Talia!

Wow! Talia has outdone herself! What a beautiful book coupled with detailed information on why ingredients are chosen or avoided. There is detailed nutrition information in the back on each recipe. and tips on how to enjoy these healthy sweet treats, without overdoing it. Normally, when I buy a cookbook and page through it I am mentally noting which recipes I will try for sure and which ones I know I probably won't ever make. Not with this book! I'm excited to try every recipe. They all look amazing. Great recipes for cookies, truffles, brownies, blondies, pies, cakes, tortes, bread, muffins, ice creams and smoothies. And, yay to a couple of recipes for nice cream that does not use bananas for a nice change. Your dilemma is going to be what to make first. I am excited to make a birthday treat for my nutritarian friend soon!
