In their third cookbook, Baked Elements: Our 10 Favorite Ingredients, acclaimed authors Matt Lewis and Renato Poliafito present 75 inventive new recipes revolving solely around their 10 most-loved ingredients—from peanut butter and caramel to malt and booze. Lewis and Poliafito celebrate these favourite elements—chocolate, for instance, or bananas—baking each one into a variety of delicious cookies, bars, cakes, milkshakes, and more. These sweets are perfect for everyday cravings, special occasions, late-night celebrations, and weekend get-togethers.

Complete with the signature stories and commentary that fans adore, chapters also include feature-ingredient infographics with quirky facts and charts and helpful Baked notes that make creating these desserts as easy as pie.

Praise for Baked Elements:

"From the writers of my favourite baking books of all time, a must-own for any baking enthusiast." - Zoe Deschanel

"Lewis and Poliafito approach their recipes with enthusiasm and dedication." - Boston Globe

"It's official. I'm a goner. I love this cookbook. . . . While many restaurant pastry chefs around the country are out there pushing the envelope and falling off the cutting edge adding savoury ingredients to deconstructed molecular gastronomy masterpieces, Matt Lewis and Renato Poliafito have delivered another collection of uniquely approachable and delicious baked creations to satisfy any craving." - Austin Chronicle

"Nobody, nobody has a better grasp on the kinds of recipes that make people happily gum up the pages of a book with cookie dough or retire their grandmother's famous recipe for cinnamon rolls (because it didn't include pumpkin) than the Baked guys. This book is full of the stuff of American bakery-case dreams." - Deb Perelman, creator of Smitten Kitchen

"Not a page goes by without some personal anecdote, tip, or bit of advice that makes every recipe feel personal, well-tested, and well-loved. The book itself is gorgeous, with drool-worthy photos and an elegant layout that makes finding old favourites easy and choosing new treats a breeze." - Serious Eats
