Kid Chef Bakes The Kids Cookbook for Aspiring Bakers Lisa Huff 9781623159429 Books Reviews

• I purchased two of these cookbooks for my nieces, both cousins are 10 years old. Once I got, I ordered one for me. It is a wonderful cookbook for young bakers and contains information that is helpful for the seasoned baker. I wanted the information regarding certain ingredients, like baking soda vs baking powder. Simple recipes for the younger new baker.
• Great cookbook that bridges the gap between too simple recipes for little kids and a high quality baking book. Lisa Huff explains the how and why of baking in a matter of fact way that appeals to older kids. Her recipes are easy to follow, but not "kid food." The chocolate chip cookie recipe is the best I've ever tried! It's so well written that it would be perfect for any novice baker looking to learn the ins and outs of baking.
• This book is perfectly constructed for teaching little ones about the joy of baking. My 8-year-old son loves it. It starts out with a few pages about baking basics, essential ingredients, and kitchen safety. I asked him to read through this section before we actually made anything. I expected him to think this was a terrible chore, but he enjoyed it and was asking good questions. It then moves on to a series of 7 recipes that teach basic baking skills. Work your way through these and you essentially complete a little Baking 101 course, learning how to use the oven, crack and separate eggs, melt chocolate, etc. Then you can move on to more advanced recipes like the zebra cake (pictured). My son was thrilled to produce something so cool and delicious. This book isn't just a collection of kid friendly, easy recipes. It's a very well thought out instructional book that progresses kids from total beginners to skilled junior chefs.
• One of the best cookbooks for older children. It looks and feels like an adult cookbook with handy tips and professional "secrets." It also has common fails in the sidebar to help you figure out what may go wrong. I've purchased both Kid Chef books and neither have stayed more than a day or two on the shelves in my classroom library. My fifth graders give this two thumbs WAY UP!
• Got this as a Christmas present for my younger niece (4th grade). She loves it so much her older sister (6th grade) has already requested a copy for her bday in February! ((Because you know--they can't possibly share... *eyeroll*)). When I called yesterday cinnamon muffins were in the works.
• This was a gift for my 8-year old daughter who loves to cook. She loves the book and has already tried several recipes. I personally don't think it is geared towards kids. The format and the wording and instructions. I would think it would be a bit more clear, easy to read, with simple step-by-step instructions, but it is designed like any other adult cookbook that we have. The recipes are great though, so that is a plus.
• Not too easy and not too hard, these recipes were just right for our young baker. You get to make fun stuff and to take pride in having it all come out well. G'daughter originally started out with basic projects and then make it up as you go along projects, but this book gave her the ideas and directions to get more creative and advanced. And we get to sample the results so it's a winner all the way round.
• My 12 yr old daughter jumped right into this book! She has marked at least a dozen pages and baked the bite sized brownies. She put a little too much batter into the mini muffin pan so they spilled over but decorated with an M & M. They popped right out and were DELISH! The only thing I helped her with was getting the hot pan out of the oven. She was insistent on me not knowing what she was making etc. This book is great! It has sections that explain so much beyond the recipes. She is loving everything about it AND her 13 yr old brother was her Sous chef! Perfect.
