Publisher Description
50+ killer cakes, cookies, and candies for your exes and enemies. Dumped by your beefcake boyfriend? BFF steal your one-and-only? Lab partner a more-than-periodic no-show? Don’t take these battles online. (Seriously, don’t do that, okay?). Get out your heaviest rolling pins, sharpest cleavers, and most blistering torches, and kill your enemies and exes . . . with kindness. That’s right – bake that loser ex a pan of Go Fudge Yourself. Gift your former friend a You’re the Devil Cake. And give that annoying admirer a Donut Call Me Again. Let them taste your over-them happiness and see what comes next . . . Pastry chef and tattoo artist Heather Kim serves up sinfully delicious recipes and bittersweet advice.
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
Pastry chef and tattoo artist Kim serves up a fierce dessert book for readers seeking vengeance against exes or others who have wronged them. Pun-heavy recipe names include "I Couldn't Carrot All Cake," "You've Got a Latte Balls," and "I Don't Give a Fig About You," and the adventurousness of the recipes (Cheeto ice cream sandwiches, anyone?) cleverly underscores the cookbook's "out with the old" mentality. Photographs of the sticky, indulgent desserts are paired with heavy-metal-esque fonts and Kim's irreverent commentary. There's wisdom in Kim's kitchen magic: "Sweet Revenge is about taking all your bittersweet memories, mixing in a little flour and sugar, and creating something delicious AF out of them," she writes. Readers in postbreakup mode or stewing over a double-crossing bestie should find much-needed laughs in Kim's no-holds-barred tone and will likely repurpose these recipes for sweeter occasions. Ages 14 up.
