Reviews & endorsements:
'Just as the art of baking seemed destined to become
a long lost, old-fashioned skill belonging to our grandparents' era, The
New Zealand Baker arrived on the scene. Old tea trolley favourites
and inspirational bread recipes served up with photos I want to eat! A
fantastic book.'
Peter Gordon, expatriate Kiwi and partner in the Providores Restaurant
and Tapas Bar in London, author of The Sugar Club Cookbook and Cook
with Peter Gordon at Home.
'Dean's inspiring book 'The New Zealand Baker' is now prescribed literature for
baking apprentices in New Zealand. The book covers all major baking techniques
and includes recipes and secrets from the popular cafés and bakeries in
New Zealand.'
Tamara Rubanowski, editor Essentially Food magazine.
'The New Zealand Baker is two invaluable baking books in one: a comprehensive
section on breads, cakes and pastries guides you to making the leading New Zealand
baker's unique and scrumptious recipes look and taste their best.'
Flo Braker, author of The Simple Art of Perfect baking and Sweet
Miniatures.

of inspiration for bakers, who will also find it is fun to read, with outstanding
photographs.'
Sylvia Macdonald, editor British Baker magazine in England.
'Brettschneider has built a career on breads, cakes and pastries, a fast moving
career he's constantly extending. Even his car sports the registration number
plate 'NZBAKR'.
Val Aldridge, food editor Dominion newspaper, Wellington NZ
'Dean Brettschneider's low profile belies his status as one of the world's best
bakers.'
Simon Roche, Howick & Pakuranga Times
'Reading through pages and pages of technical stuff can be hard yakka but Dean
Brettschneider, the baking technical whiz pitches it right - clear, concise text
with no waffle.'
Julie Biuso, Viva section of the NZ Herald newspaper
'As a statement of where we are now as a nation, culinary speaking, there could
not be a better book to send overseas for Christmas.'
David Burton, Evening Post newspaper, Wellington NZ
The New Zealand Baker was book of the week and received a very favourable
review on Leighton Smith's high rating morning show on Auckland radio station
Newstalk ZB.
'I can see this book being part of the 'must have' recipe book collection, or
even a textook for trainee bakers, patisseries and chefs. This book is worth
every dollar of its price.'
