Piece of Cake!: One-Bowl, No-Fuss, From-Scratch Cakes

One-bowl cakes are the forgotten gems in the world of home baking.

Many home bakers believe there are only two options for making cakes at home: 1) commercial cake mixes, or 2) complicated, multi-step recipes developed by professional chefs. But there's another way: one-bowl cakes are all-natural, quick and easy to prepare.

They're as much about what isn't required as what is:

you don't need multiple bowls

you will not need to cream the fat (e.g., butter, shortening or oil) with the sugar

you will not need to separate the eggs

you will not need to alternately add ingredients while simultaneously mixing

you will not need to use cake flour or any other fancy flour

you will not need to sift flour

you do not need to own or use a heavy-duty stand mixer. You'll be able to create a multitude of cakes everyone loves to eat, from classic layer cakes and Bundt cakes to old-fashioned cakes and modern innovations. The ever-popular lay-flat concealed wire-o hardcover binding, with full color throughout, makes this book even more convenient.

In addition to the cake recipes, there are over 50 recipes for icings, glazes, syrups and sauces.
