Star baker Samantha Seneviratne wants to tell you the baking secrets of industry pros for baking from scratch: You can soften butter in a microwave in seconds, without melting it. Don’t bother sifting flour. No stand mixer? No problem—you can mix it by hand. Test the doneness of a cake without toothpicks (who actually has those?). Make a custard with a dump and stir method. Tempering schmempering.

Break free from common baking myths, fears, and unnecessarily fussy procedures, with Bake Smart, a beautiful cookbook for bakers filled with Sam’s tips and warm reassurances plus 100 stunning, mouth-watering and easy baking recipes that are surprisingly achievable for any home baker. Chapters are organized by main baking ingredient (Butter; Sugar; Eggs; Flour, Nuts & Cocoa; and Yeast), each starting with a quick intro to break down the fundamentals of baking, as well as core pastry recipes—like Basic Custard, Any-Nut Frangipane, and Rough Puff Pastry—that are easy to master and return to again and again.

And each chapter includes recipes for delicious, modern-yet-timeless sweets:

  • Stuffed S’more Cookies
  • Lemony Hibiscus Doodles
  • Raspberry Rye Balsamic Tart
  • Burnt Caramel Basque Cheesecake
  • Caramelized Banana Cream Cornflake Tart
