"This book isn’t only about sugar-free, allergen-free cooking and baking. It’s about sharing the recipes that I love and use all the time.

Всеки познава нейната усмивка, но малцина знаят нейната история. Запознайте се с жената, чийто портрет се превръща в една от най-прочутите художествени творби на всички времена.
