The app is divided into four chapters: “Cakes & Traybakes”, “Pastries”, “Small Cakes & Cookies” and “Breads”. Every chapter contains a hand-picked selection of 15 refined recipes – including traditional family favourites and modern interpretations, recipes for the special occasion and also for the daily coffee break. All preparations are uncomplicated and useful for the complete beginner, thanks to the step-by-step instructions.

Reviews
It's great, I love it, but could be even better
Jenlightenment
This app is great. I love that you can learn more about the ingredients, especially what they are called in other languages since I am living overseas right now. I also love that they are all recipes from scratch. Love, love, love the pictures and steps laid out. What would make this app even better, though? Please add the ability to make notes to each recipe. As you know, times and temperatures may vary so it would be nice to keep track of our personal attempts to each recipe. This would be especially useful for me living overseas and faced with converting metric ingredient amounts and temperatures to Celsius. Notes would also allow us to write down amounts and/or ingredients used as a substitute for another ingredient for people with gluten allergies, shrimp allergies, diabetics, vegetarians or vegans. It would also be interesting to add more educational information about the recipes for those of us still learning. For example, what ingredients are absolutely necessary and what can be substituted to make a different flavor or left out to make it more of a general recipe that can have flavor added after the completed baking process.
Best Cookbook app ever

This app hits many help aspects of an actual cookbook. It displays wonderful images that I personally like and gives a vivid description of the steps on what to do... This app by far wins my 5 stars... :)
Needs more recipes!

This is a great app! I just wish there was a way to add more recipes.
Generally happy w/ the recipes... But not exactly high tech app

My review is pretty consistent w/ others... I like the presentation of the recipes but there should be either additionally added, or in the alternative, revolving recipes. The advantage of an electronic form cookbook is the possibility of updates and/or changes. Otherwise we simply have a sort of "e-book" that merely reprints the print version... a handheld mini version. For the price ($5.99), I suppose that is reasonable; a subscription of evolving recipes would/should likely cost more...
App good but ...

The app has nice recipes, but I was disappointed that I could not email or print the recipe to use in my kitchen. I don't know about anyone else, but I don't want my new iPad on the counter with the eggs, flour, milk, etc. If an update allowed me to print the recipe this would be a 5 star.
Great app
