Diva Cooking: Unashamedly Glamorous Party Food

This cookbook is perfect for entertaining. I have used these recipes time and time again to rave reviews. I had an Oscar Party last night and the food was a huge hit! I would recommend it to anyone that enjoys cooking and entertaining. I hope you enjoy it as much as I have...happy cooking!

When I first got this cookbook, I salivated over all the great recipes in it. My fiancee, who also loves to cook, did the same. We have since tried a handful of the recipes, and they have all been fabulous! We recently hosted a dinner party which included 4 recipes from the book -- everyone RAVED! And lots of the recipes can be (at least partially) made ahead, which allows the host/hostess more time to relax and socialize with guests. I would not hesitate to recommend this book for anyone who loves to have people over for dinner. You will be worshipped.

I received this book before the holidays as a gift and found it great for preparing glamorous holiday food. The recipes were not too complex, yet my friends and family were very impressed with the tasty results. Besides great tasting recipes, I think one of the best aspects is presentation. The smoked salmon in filo dough appetizer looked very elegant at New Year and went great with bubbly. The tips (called Diva dos and don'ts) are also quite helpful in avoiding problems. I liked this book so much I bought a couple copies as gifts for friends.

Jennifer and Victoria do a wonderful job with walking you through each dish so it looks and tastes as wonderful as the pictures throughout the book. I use the book every weekend trying new dishes for my guest - All have been fantastic! This is a must buy for anyone who entertains.
