Perfect French bites of sweetness and flavor to enhance your dessert table.

Book Hero Magic formatted this description to make it easier to read. While it's new and still learning, it may not be perfect - your feedback is welcome! Description

The French way is the petite treat: two delicious bites, just a taste, of a madeleine, sable, petit four, nougat, caramel, or other dessert that packs a sweet punch.

With the tiny desserts featured in Les Petits Sweets, you can taste more than one, or have a dessert-tasting party to try them all. And try them you must: with flavours like Earl Grey, lavender, cassis, cardamom, apple-yuzu, and more, it will be impossible to choose just one.

Classic French techniques explain each recipe from start to finish. Go ahead, have dessert first.
