Summary: This is NOT a cookbook for vegans!!!
Review: I am very disappointed in this book. As a vegan who does not use ANY animal products (milk, butter, eggs, meat, fish, poultry, etc.), I was lured by the idea of a "dairy-free" dessert cookbook. When I received it and looked through it, I was astounded to note that almost every recipe calls for eggs!!! There is a note in the front of the book that EggBeaters may be substituted, but since they are animal-based, I don't use them - ever. This was a waste of my money.

Summary: Fantastic - great tasting recipies!
Review: I could not believe these are dairy-free. I have never been able to find a cookbook of this nature that had such a wide variety of dairy free desserts. All are incredibly delicious. This book was worth every penny!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Easy and Delicious
Review: I was so happy when a friend gave me this book to try on my son who is lactose intoelrant and can't usually enjoy the desserts we all take for granted. The ingredients are available in any supmarket. (no specialty store searching with Julia necessary here!) He couldn't believe me at first, but loved every bite. We especially loved the Mocha Jake Cake.

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: Too much chocolate!
Review: The desserts in this book are sinfully decadent. My only concern is that a lot of sugar and oil are used in many of the recipes and therefore they are not low in fat (and are high in calories).

BUT desserts aren't supposed to be low fat etc. so go ahead, if you are missing having GREAT desserts due to a milk allergy, then this is the book for you!

Be sure to try the carrot cake, it is the best I've EVER HAD!

Summary: A great new find for the lactose-intolerant desert eater!
Review: This fabulous book is nothing short of a miracle for those of us who are lactose-intolerant. Delicious dairy-free deserts are ours to enjoy again. Thank you for this wonderful book!

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: Too much chocolate!
Review: This is not a great book for anyone with a serious milk allergy, as many of the recipes call for chocolate, either in chocolate chip or baking chocolate form. I've had a really hard time finding any completely dairy free chocolate to use in baking so many of these recipes were off limits for my milk-allergic child. The book does have a nice selection of "non chocolate" recipes, but overall I found it disappointing.
