Reviews

"I was always impressed with Chef Shishak's ability to create simple, tasty pastries. Beach House Baking gives readers the confidence to make easy, yet delicious recipes inspired by life on the water. Packaged nicely with tips and tricks, as well as anecdotes about her favorite beach spots, Beach House Baking will conjure up images of sun, surf and sand. The S'mores Cupcake is a favorite and hits all the flavors of what a beach bonfire dessert should taste like." Chef Michael Mina, James Beard Award-winning chef and CEO of Mina Group "Lei knows that less time in the kitchen means more time at the beach. This book is full of sweet, simple recipes that let you enjoy both."
