The Christmas
season is a magical time—sleigh bells ringing, puffy snow flurrying, a
cozy fire crackling, and wonderful aromas coming from the kitchen as
families make yummy Christmas treats. Christmas Baking will make
the holiday season even more magical with fun and simple recipes that
are sure to become Christmas traditions in every home.
Prominent Swedish pastry chef Mia
Öhrn offers thirty-eight of her amazingly creative and delicious

breads that are tasty, colorful, fun, and decorative. Learn how to build
