Description: "Passover baking is the greatest annual challenge in the Jewish kitchen--because dessert recipes cannot use flour, yeast, soymilk, or even pure vanilla--but [this book] changes all that with more than 45 Passover recipes that put a contemporary, gourmet twist on classic Jewish desserts and introduces bakers to desserts they may not have considered for a particular holiday, such as pumpkin doughnuts for Chanukah, caramelized mocha & vanilla bean napoleons for Shavuot, and for Passover, lemon tart with basil nut crust and black-and-white cookies (no more sponge cake)"--
