Ginette Mathiot’s classic cookbook, The Art of French Baking, delivers 336 pages of time-honored pâtisserie techniques and recipes in a sturdy, illustrated hardcover that feels at home on any kitchen counter. First released in 2011 by Phaidon Press, this English edition preserves the clear, practical voice that has guided French home bakers for generations.

Every chapter is generously illustrated, walking readers through brioche, éclairs, tarts, and delicate entremets with step-by-step visuals that demystify even the most finicky doughs. Beginners and seasoned bakers alike will appreciate Mathiot’s concise instructions, ingredient notes, and metric measurements that keep results reliable and authentic.

This used copy is clean and tight—no handwriting, no dog-eared pages, and no smoky odors—aside from a single mark on one page that never interferes with readability. It’s ready to slip right into your cookbook rotation and start turning out golden croissants and silky crème pâtissière.
