"Takes the cake into the 21st century with 25 intriguing recipes, including red velvet, Mexican chocolate spice, chai-ginger, black pepper-rum . . ." —The Telegraph
Icebox cakes feature crisp wafers and billowy whipped cream layered together and chilled overnight, where they transform into a heavenly cakelike texture. In this tempting cookbook, eager cooks can start with the Old School, a classic pairing of chocolate wafers and lush whipped cream, before moving on to fantastic combinations such as Luscious Lemon with its lemon curd filling and ladyfingers or the Black Forest's cherries and mounds of chocolate-kirsch whipped cream. Ideal when made a day or two in advance, these minimum-fuss cakes promise maximum friends-and-family cheer.
"There are 25 wonderful variations of icebox cakes in this delightful book . . . Get a copy of Icebox Cakes, some whipping cream, and get to work. It will be fun and it will be delicious." —Cooking by the Book
"Several [recipes] sounded great to me (from an adaptation of the Nabisco original to Mexican Chocolate Spice), but, inspired by Thin Mints season, I decided to try the Peppermint-Chocolate—as an Easter dessert for my extended family. It was pretty and delicious and fed a crowd and I can't wait to make it again." —Statesman

      Twenty-five varieties of icebox cake, a layered dessert made of cookies and whipped cream, appear in this cheery collection from literary agent Sagendorph and recipe developer Sheehan. For each cake (e.g., peppermint-chocolate, chai-ginger, lavender-blueberry), the authors give the option of using store-bought or homemade wafers, crackers, or ladyfingers--a wise choice, as many cooks turn to icebox cakes when they don't have an oven, or want to avoid turning one on. They also vary the texture of these pudding-like treats by topping them with chopped candies, sliced fruits, crushed cookies, or candied citrus peels. Ingredients are given in U.S. and metric measurements. VERDICT Recommended for retro dessert lovers.
