  • Print

    The book is good. Nothing wrong with it's content. However the print is too small to read for a senior guy like me. So it's hard for me to use it. Pls make the print bigger. Tks.

  • It's big and it has many recipes in it that I need

    I cannot believe how big it is, and yes, it has a "chocolate cake" recipe; the same recipe that is missing from my btty crcker and my btter hmes and grdens. The only thing it is missing is a plantain bread recipe that I need. I cannot wait to try some of these other recipes in this marvelous 1,100+ page book. Thank you
