About The Book
“Veteran bakers will be rewarded.” –Publishers Weekly

Encouraging the enjoyment of pastries at nearly every opportunity, Gâteaux presents recipes for different times of the day, from breakfast pains au chocolat to the indulgent Mont-blanc in the evening. Step-by-step line drawing sequences accompany many recipes to provide clear guidance for assembly.
Originating from a Parisian pastry shop, the European outpost of an award-winning Japanese pastry chef, Gâteaux features timeless favorites like vanilla flan and chocolate éclairs and revisits classics inspired by the land of the rising sun, such as Paris-Brest with black sesame and Japanese fraisier.

Raves and Reviews
"Pastry chef Yoshida presents a refined recipe collection inspired by French patisserie... While croissants, chocolate eclairs, Mont Blanc, and other French classics make an appearance, many recipes take inspiration from other parts of the world: the black sesame seed Paris–Brest, for instance, pays homage to Yoshida’s native Japan, and “Sicilia,” a pistachio Joconde sponge with Morello cherry compote, is inspired by Italian pastry. Yoshida admits these desserts “require skill and experience” and even seasoned home bakers will encounter unfamiliar techniques and equipment. Thankfully, Yoshida provides helpful, step-by-step illustrations for assembling fig macarons, piping the lemon tart, and laminating inverse puff pastry... Veteran bakers will be rewarded."
