Monographs and healthy pastries, highly demanded on Books For Chefs Book Week

The Book Week of our publishing house and online bookstore Books For Chefs, which took place from April 21 to 24 on the occasion of Sant Jordi, has been a success. The intense activity registered during the campaign is a clear symptom of the interest of professional bakers and pastry chefs to continue training. Reading is essential in these trades to broaden knowledge, awaken creativity, discover trends, or delve into any technique.

Mini by Xavi Donnay, the latest great release from BFC, has positioned itself as number one in sales. A piece of information that confirms that the petit four and the small pastry needed a book like this, highly specialized and at the same time innovative regarding formulas, concept, and presentation.

Analyzing the best-selling titles, we found that the most popular books are monographic, that is, on a specific topic, and with the Book For Chefs seal. Our readers, according to statistics, in addition to showing interest in healthy pastry, want to delve into products as diverse as tea cakes, doughs, chocolate, or buffets.

Regarding books from other publishers, we find two especially outstanding. On the one hand, Joncake, where Jon García reveals the secrets of his popular cheesecakes, and Richard Hawke‘s Adapt, which takes a step-by-step tour of the possibilities of vegan, gluten-free, and lactose-free confectionery.
