Sweet Carolina: Favorite Desserts and Candies from the Old North State
"An intriguing collection that shouldn't be overlooked [by] anyone longing for a bit of Carolina for their cravings."--Midwest Book Review"Recipes are arranged by type, (cakes, cookies, pies, candies) not by county, which is a mercy. . . .

Congratulations to Foy Edelman for helping to bring North Carolina to the table. We have had our dessert first, and are looking forward to the rest of the meal."--Salisbury Post"It is always a pleasant surprise to find a new cookbook as well written as this one. . . .
