Non-Fiction Memoir
A former Hollywood insider trades the Hollywood Hills
for Green Acres—and lives to tell about it in
this hilarious, poignant treat of a
memoir.
As head of her celebrity sister’s
production company, Gesine Bullock-Prado had a closet full
of designer clothes and the ear of all the influential
studio heads, but she was miserable. The only solace she
found was in her secret hobby: baking. With every sugary,
buttery confection to emerge from her oven, Gesine took one
step away from her glittery, empty existence—and one step
closer to her true destiny. Before long, she and her husband
left the trappings of their Hollywood lifestyle behind,
ending up in Vermont, where they started the gem known as
Gesine Confectionary. And they never looked back.
Confections of a Closet Master Baker follows Gesine's
journey from sugar-obsessed child to miserable, awkward
Hollywood insider to reluctant master baker. Chock-full of
eccentric characters, beautifully detailed descriptions of
her baking process, ceaselessly funny renditions of
Hollywood nonsense, and recipes, the ingredients of her
story will appeal to anyone who has ever considered leaving
the life they know and completely starting over.
