Living the High Life with Pie in the Sky

Have an altitude problem? Say goodbye to slumpy pies and goopy cakes with Susan G. Purdy's Pie in the Sky - Successful Baking at High Altitudes. This book is a successful effort at demystifying the trials and tribulations of high-altitude baking. With colorful travel anecdotes describing Purdy's baking adventures, this award-winning baking expert has taken the guesswork out of making apple pies and chiffon cakes.

The first book to effectively tackle the atmospheric difficulties experienced by bakers living in high elevations, Purdy presents each recipe at five different altitudes (from standard sea level to 10,000 feet). She also debunks the myths surrounding high-altitude adjustments, such as whether or not to raise the oven temperature (the answer can be quite different for each altitude).

With easy-to-read reference charts and a multitude of tips, amateur and expert bakers alike will enjoy these innovative recipes. From the Alpine Angel Cake to the Mile-High Lemon Meringue Pie, readers are presented with precise measurements and instructions on how to perfectly execute delicious and gorgeous-looking desserts each and every time.

The next time you make your famous souffle at your Aspen ski home, bring this magical book along for guidance. I promise your lovely creations will be as fluffy as the clouds sailing above you.
