"First, I want to say how much I truly relate to this title! As I imagine so many will when they come across this Dessert Book! I am in fact a Dessert Person, and love all things sweet, baked, and smothered in chocolate!<br/><br/>The first thing I did was go through all the recipes, with some tabbies in hand and mark every single recipe I want to try.. welp.. I ran out of tabbies, that’s how good these recipes are!<br/><br/>I have tried a few recipes already and each one has been so delicious! I also appreciate that this dessert book includes a super delicious carrot cake recipe that is just right, since good carrot cake recipes are so hard to come by! <br/><br/>It includes over 100 recipes, and I cannot wait to continue working through them!<br/><br/>I love the colorful (delicious) images of each creation, and even some that include a walk through of the step by step process. If you are in fact, a Dessert Person like me, I highly encourage you to order it. You’ll love it!!"
