How many of you love éclairs? Ever since I was a kid, I loved when my mother allowed us to get éclairs in the store, or even better, made éclairs at home. Since they were a bit time consuming, my mother rarely made them, making it a true, delicious treat that all of us looked forward to during the summer (she preferred to cook them with less humidity). Since it was such a fickle recipe, I was always terrified to make éclairs at home and honestly never even attempted it as an adult. When I heard that one of my favorite publishers, Robert Rose, who is fantastic about making approachable cookbooks, came out with an éclair cookbook, I know I had to try it for myself. When the book arrived in the mail, I couldn’t wait to get into the book and start looking at all the fantastic recipes!

Éclairs: Easy, Elegant and Modern Recipes: Our Thoughts
As someone who truly LOVES éclairs, I couldn’t wait to get into this cookbook. As someone who had only had traditional éclairs, I was blown away by all the modern, very fun recipes, that sound absolutely delicious. To me, however, the best part is all the step by step instructions. The author (and chief) make preparing éclairs look easy and approaching, something that seemed truly amazing to me, especially since it seemed so complicated when I saw my mother making her own recipe growing up. Never had I thought making éclairs would be so approachable and now I can’t wait to try making them at home after seeing just approachable Chef Adam made all of his recipes. Based on our own experience, we are delighted to give Éclairs: Easy, Elegant and Modern Recipes an A+ rating and highly recommend it to anyone who loves baking!

Who wouldn’t want to make eclairs?! This looks like a great cookbook and one I need to get at least for my SIL who loves to cook!
I have always loved eclairs. I have never thought of making them myself before. But after reading this I am sure going to try.
My aunt used to make homemade eclairs when I was little. When I was big enough, she would let me fill them with the pudding. She always made them with vanilla pudding in the middle and chocolate frosting.

These all look like yummy ideas to make different eclairs ,I’d love to try making them
I like eclairs. I’ve never tried to make them. I’m not good in the kitchen.
This looks like a great book for making eclairs the first time and they look so delicious on the cover too. My daughter would love it if I were to make these at home rather than buying them from the bakery.
I want this cookbook!!! I love, Love, LOVE eclairs!!! Thank you for the sharing this cookbook!
These Eclairs look really good. /i have never tried to make them before.
We love eclairs! They were not only good, but fun to eat!! Sometimes the kids would have races to see who would lick all the cream out of the middle first!
I have never made them before or even thought about it. If I did make them, it’ll be the first for our family!
So I pinned the recipes to surprise the family one day with some homemade goodies! ?
Yummy!
Yummo!!! Eclairs are my absolute favorite!! I would love to be able to make my own!! Especially ones so pretty!!
My husband loves eclairs. I’ve seen them being made on The Great British Baking Show and they make it look so easy! So does this book!
How fabulous! I have a oousin who is crazy over eclairs. This is for her and I hope she makes some for us.
I have had traditional eclairs and have made their cousin, cream puffs. I’d like to try some of these innovative recipes.
This sounds like a great cookbook. I like that there are pictures with step by step instructions.
As a child, I always thought an eclair was a special treat. I still do. I imagine home made are great.
I’m not crazy about the colored frosting. But, would be interested in trying.
Growing up, we went to town and bought chocolate eclairs ea. weekend. They were so good. I would have never thought of a whole book on them. I will have to tell my sister about this book. I know she will want it.
I have never made eclairs–only bought from a bakery. After reading this I might just try it myself.
Oh, I haven’t had an eclair in ages. What fun it would be to make them, especially for a get together!
