My new favorite cookbook: A World of Cake has adorable pictures and recipes accompanied by the history and origins of all these desserts.
I love the "family trees" in the book used to outline the origins cakes like, sponge, meringues and fried cakes.
Even if I don't get a chance to cook all 150 cakes It's fun to read about the histories behind cakes from Bangladesh, Japan, Jamacia and many more. They even have a recipe from Oklahoma for Cherokee Wild Huckleberry Cake, which I will be sure to try out this summer. (Just need to find some Huckleberries.)
