The Oxford Companion to Sugar and Sweets is the most ambitious and eclectic reference
work of its kind, a sweeping collection of nearly 600 entries on all things sweet,
written by 265 expert contributors ; Not a cookbook, but an encyclopedia collection
of entries on all things sweet. The articles explore the ways in which our taste for
sweetness have shaped-- and been shaped by-- history. In addition, you'll discover
the origins of mud pie; who the Sara Lee company was named after; why Walker Smith,
Jr. is better known as "Sugar Ray Robinson"; and how lyricists have immortalized sweets
from "Blueberry Hill" to "Tutti Fruiti."
