Before the pastry kitchens, the chocolate salons and the 25 years of Norman Love Confections, there was this book.
Norman grew up flipping through the pages of Betty Crocker’s Boys and Girls Cookbook, fascinated by what could happen when a few ingredients, a recipe and a little creativity came together.
We can’t say Betty Crocker knew she was helping inspire a future world-class pastry chef. But we’d like to think she’d be pretty pleased with how things turned out. Does anyone else remember this cookbook?
