Countess Cristina de Vogüé invites us into the splendor of
her home at Château Vaux-le-Vicomte and divulges sixty-three
recipes from her exclusive collection. Personally selected
from family recipe books, passed along by close friends, or
inspired by her international travels, these decadent
desserts are the perfect finale to any meal. From Lady
Cawdor’s Orange Soufflé to Floating Island with Pink
Pralines and Green Tea Custard, they are suited for every
occasion, from afternoon tea to holiday feasts.The book
opens with the history of the château, whose striking
architecture and idyllic gardens were the inspiration for
Versailles. Stunning original photography showcases the
finished desserts in the atmospheric interiors and shaded
gardens of Vaux-le-Vicomte, featuring the rich details that
define French style—brocade upholstery, crisp linens,
crystal tableware, and silver place settings.
