Juliette's speculoos

As a little girl, Brenda Keirsebilck was crazy about baking. After a career in advertising she trained as a baker and for a number of years now she has been running Juliette's Artisanale Koekenbakkerij, a craft biscuit bakery in Bruges, Belgium. This book is an ode to the speculoos, Belgium's favourite biscuit. Today this type of spiced biscuit from the gingerbread family is more popular than ever and is used much more widely than for accompanying a cup of coffee. In the first part of this book are some basic recipes for baking speculoos biscuits yourself. In the second part the various types of speculoos are used as ingredients in delicious desserts. With mouth-watering figures from photographer and baking fanatic Karen Van Winkel.
