This is a great book. I made the strawberry cake that is on the cover for Thanksgiving and it was delicious! Everybody raved about it. I also love the stories that also go along with the recipes. A great buy!

Great book November 26, 2007 2 out of 3 found this review helpful
I made the cream cheese pound cake and everyone loved it. However, some measurements in other ecipes seem to be a little off.
COULDN'T WAIT TO TRY THE RECIPES, A+++!! October 26, 2007 4 out of 4 found this review helpful
I am so happy that I stumbled across this book when searching for a southern dessert cook book. I couldn't wait to get it in the mail and quickly went through it to try the first recipe that stood out. I made the down home bred pudding and it was fantastic!!
Instead of using regular rum, I used hazelnut liquer and it turned out much better than I could have expected. I also tweaked the measurements here and there because my family loves a "wet" bread pudding.
So needlesstosay, I've been asked to make this for Thanksgiving as the main dessert! I can't wait to try the rest of the recipes. If they are any where close to this one, I'm sure they will all taste amazing!!
Outstanding collection October 2, 2007 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
This is truly an outstanding collection of desserts -- from puddings to pies to cakes to candy. While a few of them include cake mixes, they are mostly from scratch and traditional favorites such as banana pudding and pound cake.
"Sweets" also serves as a charming testament to the author's love of her family. Most of the recipes are family favorites, often the signature dishes of particular relatives, and the book is full of stories and photographs of her family.
