The variety of recipes is not only exciting it is inspiring… you can get the gist of what types of baking recipes work well with the maker, if you already bake you can icknup quickly on what is different about these recipes and start trying adapt your current favorites too! Way better than I expected… I honestly only bought it to make the gift to my wife complete and seem more thoughtful lol but turns out to be way more useful than I expected!I was excited when I saw this book had GF recipes so I bought it. Some recipes are GF but they are not low carb gluten free. This is a good book for a person who loves to bake but does not like to use the oven. My MIL and daughter like the recipies included although find some a bit too sweet, however the recipes are really good ones in this cookbook and sized for the cupcake maker - a real plus! Also, this book has some good suggestions for savory products that can be cooked in the cupcake maker. Good book for showing how versatile the Babycakes Cupcake makers really are. Would not recommend for the gluten free recipes though.Some good and easy recipes. I just wish it had pictures for all the recipes. Sometimes I just get mixes from the store and look in the book on how to add some extra kick to the mix. Great ideas in the book. Also, there are a lot of helpful tips.These are ALWAYS a big hit in my office and if you don't have a babycakes maker-- get one right now! It is so easy to make and clean up! I only wish it used standard mini cupcake liners.I love this book. I have made several recipes so far and they have been a success at work, church and home. I love how easy the cupcakes are to make. Homemade cupcakes in 10 minutes? great!I have made three or four recipes so far...not disappointed. Liked them all.I really like this book. I have made several recipes from it and they have all been delicious. Definitely recommend itGreat to go with the Babycakes mini cup cake maker!!!
