Old-Time Brand-Name Desserts is a comprehensive, nostalgia-rich collection of recipes, advice, and illustrations derived from the author's extensive collection of recipe pamphlet books that were published between 1875 and 1945. Organized around desserts and updated for today, the recipes and accompanying tips and advice are culled from sources as diverse as Hershey's, Davis Baking Powder, Sealtest, Sunkist, and Maxwell House Coffee, and other seminal American cookery corporations. Gorgeous authentic artwork complements the recipes and vintage "Facts Worth Knowing." Here is a unique celebration of comfort foods from the heyday of the brand-name recipe pamphlets so popular in America's early kitchens. -- amazon.com
