A newly revised edition of the cookbook that makes everyone feel like a kid again. Serendipity 3, New York’s legendary restaurant and boutique, has a history as rich as its sinful and sumptuous desserts, and this new edition of its cookbook indulges in both to commemorate its sixtieth anniversary. Seventy-five scrumptious dessert recipes and fabulous anecdotes bring the magical enchantment and irreverent flair of Serendipity to the home.
“Yes, I fell in love. Yes, I proposed to her. Yes, She loved me back! Yes, I was on the top of the world. And then … Yes, We parted. Yes, I was devastated. Yes, I cried. Yet, this is The Best Serendipity of my Life. A tale of fun, music, passion, love and life”
A little bit naughty and a lot nice, Serendipity 3 is a colorful culinary landmark for New York's sweets-seeking families, tourists, and scenemakers alike. Serendipity Sundaes (following on the success of their last book, Sweet Serendipity) is chock-full of entertaining inspiration for creating your own versions of its world-famous towering treats at home. Sprinkled throughout the many easy recipes are morsels of the restaurant's celebrity-studded history and candy-colored personality. Wit and whimsy abound in the realm of Serendipity--there's the Strawberry Fields Sundae, the Cheesecake Vesuvius, and the Outrageous Banana Split, to name but a few. Don't forget the many melting sundae spinoffs either--the famous Frrrozen Hot Chocolate, Ice Cream Sandwiches, and Milkshakes and Malteds. For the truly devoted decadents, there is also a section on making your own ice cream, sauces, and special toppings from scratch. Praise for the restaurant: "When you find something this good, it must be shared." --Oprah Winfrey "Bad moods melt quickly here." --Saveur
