This is no ordinary picture cookbook that simply features recipe upon recipe of traditional sweets. Kati Urszenyi, author of Sweet Decadence, lends her opulent Central-European background into her wonderful recipes, which have been handed down over generations in her family.
Another unique feature of Urszenyi’s featured recipes is their base. Instead of the usual flour, the base of most of these recipes is nuts. Many recipes also contain honey. Sweet Decadence also contains the formula on how to replace sugar with artificial sweetener combinations, thus making the gastronomic concoctions fully adapted for diabetics.
Sweet Decadence first outlines ingredients and techniques, and the following chapters begin with a brief, albeit humorous look at life in the 19th century. Then the ingredients are given, followed by explicit instructions to create the dessert. This book is a true celebration of cooking and at the same time it highlights a special marriage of both culture and taste like no other cookbook could.
