CAKELOVE

Warren Brown has a bachelor’s degree from Brown University, and a J.D. and master’s degree from The George Washington University. After establishing a career in health education and law, he realized his calling was baking. In 2002 he opened his bakery, CakeLove, and LoveCafe followed in 2003. He lives in Washington, D.C. Warren Brown wants you to bake your cake and eat it too. And he wants you to conquer your fear of baking cakes and learn to love every step of cake baking including, of course, the step in which you present your made-from-scratch masterpiece to bedazzled, hungry-eyed family and friends.

Every page of CakeLove communicates that satisfaction, as well as Brown’s can-do approach to the art of baking. As he asserts, baking cakes isn’t a cakewalk, but it’s not rocket science, either and getting it right isn’t nearly as hard as you think. Warren Brown provides all the basics on ingredients, equipment, and techniques, as well as recipes for more than 50 cakes that range from the classic (Chocolate Butter Cake) to the adventurous (Sassy, a pound cake made with mango puree and cayenne pepper). The informative step-by-step shots make you want to run to the kitchen and start baking, and the scrumptious color photos of completed cakes look good enough to sink your teeth into. For Brown, love and baking are inseparable!
