I have many of your books Dorie and didn't think I needed another but reading the names of those cakes make me want your new one too.

I love that one of the cake names: “Almost Maida Heatter’s lemon Bundt cake. She was the best. And it’s wonderful how you help carry on her legacy.

Doug, Maida Heatter's books meant so much to me when I was first learning to bake. Still do! She was, as you said, "the best" - xoD

I’ve renewed my subscription…do I need to do anything to get the bonus from you? Also I preordered you book, ( and David’s), I’m assuming you will let us know when/how to send our receipts? O my goodness…those pics today are gorgeous! Thank you!

Janet! Thank you so much. There's nothing more for you to do to get my subscriber gift - being on the paid-subscriber list is all we need. As for the book's pre-order bonus, as soon as I know the procedure, I'll let you know.

And I'm SO happy that you love the illustrations - I'm crazy about them.

Thank you again - xoDorie

I'm sad I just found this book, as my trip in Paris is nearing the end🥺🥺 but well...That means it gives me another reason to come back to this beautiful city. Thanks for the recommendation. All of here cannot wait for your book to arrive at our doors in Oct. 🥰 The illustration is fabulous.

That Pont-Aven pistachio cake 🩷🩷. Is it a dacquoise like cake?

Pre ordering the book now❤️

Linda, thank you for preordering - I'm excited for you to have the new book.

The Pont-Aven cake is based on a financier,so it's more substantial than a daquoise - it's a good one! xoD

Just preordered! Dorie, might you share the location of the treats in the photo second from the bottom? I’m heading to Paris in late June and want to go to whatever shop that is! 🤗🤗

Samantha, thank you so much for preordering - I'm excited for you to have the book!

I'm not sure which photo you're thinking of? The video of the baker making croissants? If it's that, then we're both out of luck, because we can't have them - I took that clip during the annual Fête du Pain, which takes place in May in front of Notre Dame.

Even so, you are not going to be short of deliciousness when you come to Paris - there's good pastry everywhere! xoD
