When a craving hits, it hits hard. You need chocolate now. Or caramel. Or maybe just a really big spoonful of peanut butter. Paging through Baked Elements felt like a whirlwind tour of every craving I've ever had. Since the book is organized around ten of the most crave-inducing ingredients in a baker's pantry, I'm thinking that's the whole point.
