The Oxford companion to sugar and sweets
Darra Goldstein (Editor)
This title provides a collection of nearly 600 entries on all things sweet, written by 265 expert contributors. The book takes readers around the globe and throughout time, affording glimpses deep into the brain as well as stratospheric flights into the world of sugar-crafted fantasies. More than just a compendium of pastries, candies, ices, sweet preserves, and all manner of confections, this work explores the notion of the sweet as one that has brought richness to our language, our art, and of course, our gastronomy
