Hey Guys,
I search baking books.
But not the usually ones please just professional ones.
I mean those that you get in school.
I'm sorry for my bad English but I'm from Germany and need to learn the English words ;-).
Can yall send me please few titles fr few books?
Many thanks :)

Just be a bit careful, since you are German, you will be used to the metric system.
A lot of the American books (and some British) use the imperial system (oz, ounces, fluid ounces, pounds, gallons etc).
Note as well: the USA gallon and UK gallon are not the same, neither are the ounces.
Hope this helps

Many schools are using
[product="27607"]On Baking 3rd Edition [/product]
On Baking by Labensky and Martel, Published by Pearson. If you buy an older version on Amazon it will be a lot cheaper. The basic book does not change much they have new editions to stick the students for more money.
Lol the sticking it to the students runs the whole gamut from English 101 to almost every major text "required".

They change one word or rearrange a chapter then reprint and call it Edition whatever.

Took me a couple of semesters to pick up on this scam.

After that I started haunting the used book marts and bartering with someone from the semester before me lol.

Good book by the way.....
