This book features recipes for sweets from around the world by Ms. Minako Imada, who studied at confectionery schools in Switzerland and Germany and ran a confectionery school in Tokyo.
It introduces the characteristics and background of various sweets, such as pies, butter cakes, and jellies, along with specific recipes from various European countries.
The stories related to sweets are also interesting, and the world of sweets, presented within the context of culture, was shocking at the time.
More than just a recipe book, it conveys different cultures from around the world in an easy-to-understand manner, with beautiful photographs and historical anecdotes.
In the Showa era, when pre-war Japanese values were still strong, this book introduced the unknown world and cultures through sweets, acting as a bridge.
