Recipe for cover photo not included

Reviewed in the United States on October 12, 2023

Verified Purchase

I bought this because the photo on the cover was so beautiful and I wanted to make that recipe for Thanksgiving. Could not find its recipe anywhere. The closest thing was a Sunflower design but it is not the same. I will have to guess about how to replicate the design. The rest of the book does look quite good. Hope to try making something in the next few weeks.

Completely Edible Gorgeous Breads

Reviewed in the United States on January 29, 2024

I bake bread frequently. The basic breads in this book are simple for even beginners to make. But the decorations are not that difficult, and are wonderful! The "decorations" are well described, and the instructions are well written. Do you want to wow your family or guests with a beautiful floral bread? How about a flat bread decorated like an Easter egg? Or a bread that resembles a well know piece of artwork like Claude Monet's Lily Pond? All of the breads are completely edible. I want to bake some of these, just because they are so beautiful - and impressive.

I received an advance copy of this book from NetGalley.

Vine Customer Review of Free Product( What's this? )

This cookbook is a work of art! The breads look absolutely incredible as well as delicious! There are a handful of basic focaccia dough recipes and then the designs are presented in thematic sections with instructions for when and how to add them to the base. The sections are: Flowers, Artist Inspired, Nature Inspired, and Holidays & Special Occasions. As a vegan, I really appreciate that vegan substitutions are written as applicable into the focaccia recipes so that I don’t have to guess.

I haven’t tried any of the focaccias yet, but recently used this cookbook as inspiration to decorate my pizza by integrating elements from some of the author’s designs within my own style. I hesitated in sharing a picture because the designs in the book are so much beyond my first-time decoration, but I am having so much fun with this, and look forward to trying some of the official breads over the holidays! The author is truly an artist!

Some Exciting New Tricks with Bread

Reviewed in the United States on October 14, 2023

I bake a TON of bread. Every few weeks I make a batch of dough using one of the recipes in “Artisan Bread in Five Minutes a Day” usually making a combination of focaccia, baguettes, and country boules. Recently, in an attempt to up my game presentation-wise, I purchased “The Art of Sourdough Scoring” by Brittany Wood, which is an excellent guide on how to produce beautifully scored country loaves. In this book, however, Theresa Culletto takes the artistry of bread baking to a whole new level; here are focaccia with flowers, landscapes, fields, trees, and even pastiches of Vincent van Gogh. I liked that Culletto includes lots of recipes for dough but that her techniques and decorating instructions would work with a variety of doughs including recipes that you might already use. I look forward to recreating her projects for my text dinner party or whenever someone asks me to bring bread to their party—there will be gasps! (Or at least I hope!)

This review is based on an advanced review copy I received through NetGalley.

Easy to follow, but very involved recipes

Vine Customer Review of Free Product( What's this? )

I’m gonna be honest, I hoped my chef husband would be inspired by the book and let me have fun just decorating the bread after doing all the prep work. He informed me it “wasn’t his thing” and I’m on my own. But I’m also a baker and growing more excited as I’m working my way through the book. The breads are a labor of love so I’m currently just trying the different base recipes. But I will say, I’d you’re ready to elevate your dinner parties, these recipes are laid out quite well and the flavor combinations are considered so they’re not just “look good”
but also taste good!

Fabulous focaccia

Reviewed in the United States on October 27, 2023

Vine Customer Review of Free Product( What's this? )

I love baking beautiful breads, so when I saw this book I was excited to read it. It is full of some of the most visually appealing focaccia breads I have ever seen. These aren't just recipes, they are instructions on how to produce works of culinary art. The author encourages me to use her designs as practice for future focaccia bread that I will create on my own. I am certainly inspired.

The first part of the book is full of expert instruction on how to prepare successful doughs and toppings. There are only four basic dough recipes which become the canvas for edible compositions. Most designs rely heavily on peppers, onions, tomatoes, olives and pickles, but there are a few sweet dessert bread recipes as well. I'm looking forward to trying out these beautiful bread recipes.
