Hembakat är Bäst

I heard about this cookbook back in September but have been thinking about it again lately. Even though the cookbook Hembakat är Bäst (which means "homemade is best") is only found in Sweden's IKEA stores and it is written in Swedish, I seriously want this cookbook ....mainly because the pictures of the ingredients are so fun and awesome to look at! :)

Check out the blog post below from NOTCOT to see what I am talking about...

IKEA + Carl Kleiner = Hembakat är Bäst- 09.26.10

Apparently IKEA has released what may be the coolest styled ingredients cookbook ~ “Hembakat är Bäst” (Homemade is Best). Filled with 30 recipes for baked goodies broken down by ingredient… i’d love to see this in person! Rumor has it that it’s free in swedish IKEAs? (Anyone have one? or an extra?) The photos by Carl Kleiner are absolutely amazing! Don’t laugh, but its been quite the mystery guessing from the precise geometrically laid out ingredients what these pictures might MAKE! So much google image searching as i guess and see! (Don’t worry, i’ve put the google image search links in for you, so you can play along at home as well!) See the images i found at Carl Kleiner’s site on the next page ~ and if you have a copy, or can help me find a copy, do drop me a comment? Thanks!!!
