- A cut above the rest
I ABSOLUTELY LOVE this cookbook. Everything I've made out of it has turned out perfectly, and been super tasty to boot. The Joy of Vegan Baking is by far the best Vegan Cookbook for the money I've bought yet. It has tons of yummy desserts that do not taste "alternative". I often bring in the brownies and cookies to work and my coworkers never know that they're eating a Vegan dessert until I tell them! I highly recommend, especially if you're a new Vegan who still wants to eat all of the same desserts ... Read More

- Vegan, but just white flour and sugar
I prefer to use at least half whole grain and better sweetener choices than this book calls for.Yes, I can adjust the recipes, but they are otherwise so unhealthful, that I don't bother.I can't understand all the hoopla over this cookbook.It honestly seems that as long as a book has Vegan in the title, it will get mostly 5 stars.I agree with the other reviewer who said there's better choices out there.
Rating: - Bringing JOY with every recipe!

Rating: - Flat Cakes... Better Vegan Dessert Books Out There!
I've made a couple of recipes out of this book and each and every one was a disappointment-- they weren't flavorful and the textures were terribly spongey/rubbery.These recipes make new vegans feel doomed that they'll forever be eating flat, dense cakes.Not true though!The Vegan Cupcakes Take Over the World cookbook is awesome and makes perfect, flavorful cakes.I wouldn't suggest buying this book at all, because as I mentioned, there are better books out there!
