  For those who swoon when the first crop of ripe red strawberries makes their debut at the farmers' market; for those who believe raspberries should have their own special food group; for those who never met a blueberry they didn't like. This cookbook is for you. Luscious Berry Desserts is a loving tribute to the berry. And each recipe presents the ideal way to serve them. A tender lemon cake becomes a visual masterpiece with brightly colored raspberry curd spread between the layers. The deceptively simple pleasure of a bowl of Blueberry Marzipan Custard is an inspired cross between souffle and claufouti (plus, with the antioxidant activity in blueberries, you can claim it's good for your health). Classic strawberry shortcake sits up straight and minds its manners with the delightful addition of fresh basil leaves and a scoop of Strawberry-Orange Sorbet.
