I love to cook, whether it is whipping up homemade baby food for Little Dude or something the whole family can enjoy. I consider myself relatively creative making meals everyone will enjoy; but when it comes to desserts lets just say I could use a little help. I am happy to say that thanks to Beach House Baking: An Endless Summer of Delicious Desserts I now have tons of inspiration this fall to help keep summer alive in my home despite the cold weather outside.

In Beach House Baking: An Endless Summer of Delicious Desserts, pastry chef Lei Shishak shares her most popular recipes for morning treats, cupcakes, crisps, cookies, pies, ice cream sandwiches, frozen pops, and beverages from her celebrated Sugar Blossom Bake Shop in the charming beach town of San Clemente, California.
At her shop, Chef Lei serves up familiar treats that offer so much more than a sweet dining experience. Inspired by her beach town location and her love of the sand-and-surf lifestyle, she creates high-quality, made-from-scratch desserts that transport you to the islands and resorts you’ve always hoped to visit. Get ready to hit the beach through one hundred recipes!
Lei’s recipes in Beach House Baking are designed to take you on an island vacation, turning the task of baking into a virtual journey to a beachside paradise, filled with the sounds and aromas of the places you can go to just get away from it all!
Some of the recipes included are:
- Bountiful Blueberry Scones
- Beach’s Best Granola
- S’mores Cupcakes
- Reese’s Pieces Chocolate Drops
- Caramelized Banana Fudgsicle
- Windswept Cherry Pie
- Lemon Ricotta Cracked Cheesecake
- Baked Apple Cider Donuts

Choosing which recipe to use is the hardest part. The recipes are simple to put together, and sure to please everyone. There’s even a Sangri recipe, which doesn’t require baking! There are so many recipes we are looking forward to trying! With the upcoming holiday season I believe Beach House Baking: An Endless Summer of Delicious Desserts will make the perfect gift for the baker in your life!
