Welcome to the kiss cookbook blog

some of my favourite cookbooks.

Some people like to eat dessert, some people like to make desserts, some people like to make and eat their desserts. I happen to fall under the last category and if you’re like me then you will love this cookbook blog. I’m not embarrassed to consider myself a beginner when it comes to baking. Now that I have reached an age where I can be more independent in the kitchen, I have developed a sweet tooth and a love for baking.

As I have learned, when you can find a recipe that tastes great and happens to be simple too, you have found the perfect recipe. This blog is all about the marriage of simple recipes and that have a great taste. That's right. Welcome to desserts central.

 There is a natural attraction to doing things that are simple. Simplicity is easier when you are a beginner and for desserts, if it tastes good and it's simple then you have a winner. This cookbook blog is made for people who love to bake but don’t necessarily have the time to go crazy, or to go shopping for unusual ingredients. If there is one thing I have learned when it comes to making desserts, it is this: the simpler the better.

The reason for my title "kiss" is because of the well-known acronym; Keep It Simple Stupid. However, in my case, I like to see it as "keeping it super simple". I have always admired this acronym and while I was coming up with a name I realized that KISS applies to baking almost as much as it applies to life itself. Over my past years of experience with baking, this is one of the most important lessons I have learned. When you try to get all fancy and ambitious with recipes, things can get messy. So I thought it would be fantastic if I could make a cookbook with recipes that are easy, and taste good too!
