Crepes! Where have you been all my life!
The only experience I've had with crepes was as a child at grandmas. She made blintzes every year when we came to visit. Sweet cottage and ricotta cheese in a sweet crepe with strawberry jam on top. We couldn't get enough. I never thought to make other crepes. So many ideas in this book, so little time to make them all. Well, make time! You will be amazed at the wonderful savory crepe ideas for dinner or appetizers. How about eggs with your favorite veggs and cheese in a giant crepe for breakfast? Yes, it's like a burrito, but oh so much lighter and more flavorfull. I was using egg roll and won ton wrappers for appetizers, but mini crepes were an even bigger hit with friends. (and they don't need deep frying or even baking). Light and fluffy, I'm just loving these and this book. Thanks Oksana!

Wow! Complete, sinfully delicious crepe recipes with detailed instructions.
Crepes have always been an occasional indulgence in our house. Many years ago we got on a "crepe kick" and burned ourselves out on making them. Since then, I have only eaten crepes at a certain favorite restaurant and only several times a year.

Plus this book has started me thinking about other foods I can incorporate into my crepes.Never made crepes? This is the perfect book for you. Oksana provides complete written instructions and then shows you with wonderful photos how to produce your very own sinfully delicious crepes. Get you copy today.

Very user friendly
Crepes are a dish I haven't made much at all in my many years of cooking, mostly because I haven't quite known exactly how to do them. With "Crepes" by Oksana Vitruk, all that is about to change.This book is filled with photographs, walking you through each step of the process and offering recipes for numerous kinds of fillings. Whether you want a meal or dessert, and if you want rolled crepes or ones shaped like triangles (didn't know you could shape them like this), this book is extremely user friendly for tackling this dish with confidence.So now, guess what I'm going to fix for dinner? :)

Excellent crepe fillings
Being of French descent, I always have a stack of crepes in my fridge. In our home we use them as Mexicans use tortillas, so I keep them handy for wrapping fillings.I was pleased to find this book and the many filling recipes it contains. We already made the mushroom filling and the chicken meat filling yesterday and they were excellent.If you are new to crepe making, the pictures are very good and directions are easy to follow. All in all, an excellent guide to making and filling crepes. Recommended

A Great Book for Crepe Lovers
I have always wanted to learn how to make my own crepes. I've always enjoyed them at restaurants but have been apprehensive to try them at home. Oksana Vitruk does a great job breaking down the process into simple steps to make it seem much easier to make them. She includes a variety of different recipes for the crepes themselves as well as a variety of fillings. She includes very detailed pictures and well written instructions to help anyone get on the path of making delicious crepes in no time.

A Terrific Book on Crepes - Wow!
This is really a terrific book on crepe-making. It has three different recipes for crepe batter and different ways to mix them up. On top of that there are lots of intriguing fillings to put in those crepes. Imagine a Poppy seed filling. Sounds delicious, doesn't it?Oksana Vitruk sure has produced a lot of great cookbooks, but I think this one might be her best yet.

Crepe Recipes Review
If you like pancakes, you are just going to want every single recipe that is in this book. It was a case of, sheer want, on every page I turned. I loved the different ingredients which I had never thought of using and also loved the way that the pancakes were decorated and and and ... just get it. It's the best. :)

I didnt realise there were so many things you could do with pancakes!
Great book of varied recipes that will definitely tantalise any tastebuds. I was really surprised at the variety of things you can do with crepes. I guess I need a little more imagination in the kitchen! Books like this are a greta help to bring a bit more variety into my repertoire.

I can't deny it...I absolutely love crepes!
And this book will fuel my addiction, definitely. The author gives extremely good instructions on how to make a flawless crepe--however you prefer them: with sugar or none, with less milk, less flour--you get the picture. The one thing they share in common is they are all very easy to make and will definitely get you raves for being such a good cook. Guess what we're having for breakfast tomorrow.....and maybe lunch...and supper!
