A seamless blend of innovative recipes and memoir from the James Beard Award–winning pastry chef and author of the bestseller Everyone Can Bake, featuring thirty never-before-seen recipes and the inspiring stories behind his most sought-after creations.
Dominique Ansel, creator of the Cronut™—the croissant-doughnut hybrid that has taken the world by storm—is no one-hit wonder. Classically trained in Paris, responsible for a four-star kitchen in New York, and now the proprietor of New York’s highest rated bakery, Ansel has become a modern-day Willy Wonka: the creator of wildly creative, extraordinarily delicious, and unbelievably popular desserts.
Now, Ansel shares the secret to transforming the most humble ingredients into the most extraordinary, tempting, and satisfying pastries imaginable. Dominique Ansel: The Secret Recipes reveals the stories and recipes behind his most sought-after creations and teaches lovers of dessert everywhere how to make magic in their own kitchens.
Featuring thirty never-before-seen recipes, including:
- The Cronut
- The Frozen S’more (a s’more and ice cream hybrid with a crème brûlée crust)
- The Magic Souffle (the first soufflé in history that does not collapse)
- The DKA (Ansel’s first signature pastry—which quietly outsells the Cronut every day)
- The Paris-New York (Ansel’s reinvention of the Paris-Brest)
- French classics like madeleines, macarons, canneles, meringues, and the religieuse
- New American treats like the gingerbread pinecone, flourless dark chocolate pecan cookies, crème brûlée cheesecake, and caramel popcorn
- And more!
