A really good cookie, that is. It can spark a romance, comfort in time of need, relay gratitude and smooth over a gaffe. It can even bring a community together. In short, a great cookie can be the start of an even greater story. To celebrate its 30th anniversary, this book brings together the stories of Levain Bakery in a beautifully designed, carefully curated book--filled with photographs, illustrations, and a selection of recipes.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFounders and bakers Connie McDonald and Pam Weekes personally recount how Levain became the success it is today--from building a client list in Anthony Bourdain's kitchen and later beating Bobby Flay in a chocolate chip cookie-off to becoming a bicoastal enterprise while retaining a small business's dedication to community. The book will also share some classic Levain recipes: blueberry muffins, oatmeal raisin scones, and more. An homage to the bakery and the city where it originated, this book is the perfect gift for cookie fans, as well as a collectible souvenir from this iconic New York institution.\u003cbr\u003e10% of the proceeds of this book will be donated to \u003ci\u003eHot Bread Kitchen\u003c\/i\u003e, an organization committed to creating economic opportunity through culinary job skills training.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 224\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1.2 x 9.2 x 8.1 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e October 14, 2025\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51964708389165,"sku":"9781595911513","price":40.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0938\/3185\/6429\/files\/levain-bakery-a-story-of-friendship-community-and-cookies-hardcover-1626612.webp?v=1775475199","url":"https:\/\/ishookbooks.com\/products\/levain-bakery-a-story-of-friendship-community-and-cookies-hardcover","provider":"iShook Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
