From the publisher

The city's chefs have changed and updated classic tastes and flavors, but every bite is filled with the memories of Charleston's rich history. Some of the desserts can be dated to 1847. Since that time, they have been adapted and perfected by restaurants in the area. From the Middleton Place's Huguenot Torte to the Square Onion Caf 1/2's Silver Moon Caramel Cake, there is an indulgent dessert for everyone. This first-class cookbook also serves as a restaurant guide, with photographs, history, musing and stories accompanying the award-winning recipes.

From the rear cover

"Janice Shay and the Charleston chefs have hit a home run clear to the heaven of sweets. This one is destined for my short shelf of absolute favorite, go-to, great cookbooks. You're gonna need two copies: one to cook from and one to drool over. "
-Frances Schultz, author of Atlanta at Table and A House in the South
