WHSF-Copy-5The Jewish High Holidays
, which are just around the corner, are all about family and friends sharing meals and nothing enhances the celebration like a decadent dessert. Paris-trained pastry chef, Paula Shoyer, known as “the Jewish baking maven,” has created the essential baking book for Jewish home cooks with The Holiday Kosher Baker. This stunning book will forever change the way people bake for the Jewish holidays because now choosing the right dessert is easy as pie, or babka or layer cake!

Paula has created desserts that follow the latest trends but also ones that remind us of those our grandmothers used to make – only she has given them a distinctively modern twist. There are 37 gluten-free recipes along with some vegan, dairy-free, low-sugar and nut-free recipes—something for everyone in the Jewish community or those that love Jewish food – and all special-diet recipes are labeled.

Her sections for Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur break-fast have recipes to satisfy all appetites.  Along with new versions of sponge cakes, babkas, challahs, and rugelach, Paula suggests these inventive and tasty recipes for High Holiday entertaining: Quinoa Pudding with Caramelized Apples and Honey; Nana’s Holiday Apple Cake; Apricot and Berry Strudel; Vanilla and Chocolate 12-Layer Cake; Chocolate Ganache Layer Cake Squares with Fruit Sauce; Apple Pizza Tart; Raspberry and Rose Macaron Cake; Apple and Honey Challah Rolls; Orange and Honey Madeleines and Pecan Sticky Buns with Butterscotch Whisky Glaze.

“My hope is that The Holiday Kosher Baker will become your new holiday baking manifesto,” says Paula.  “Now you have a guidebook that shows you how to create new, creative, and yet holiday-appropriate desserts that no longer reflect the ‘same old, same old’ approach that we have used for a generation. Kosher food is becoming more gourmet and mainstream and it’s time for dessert to do the same.  So take a step forward, get into the kitchen, and realize that a new world of baking is at your fingertips. Join my revolution.”

The Holiday Kosher Baker is the must-have dessert cookbook for the holidays and one that you’ll go back to all year long.  You don’t have to be Jewish or kosher to love Paula’s delicacies!
