Après Le Grand Livre de cuisine, voici l'art des douceurs selon Alain Ducasse et Frédéric Robert. Pâtisserie, viennoiserie, boulangerie, confiserie, travail du chocolat, des glaces et des sorbets, des fruits et des arômes : rien n'y manque, tant les recettes classiques et les bases que des créations audacieuses portant la marque d'un style concentré et architecturé. Cette " cuisine du sucré " est en continuité parfaite avec l'art du salé ; un bon repas est un plaisir harmonieux, et l'arrivée du dessert ne doit provoquer aucune rupture dé ton. Ce livre à la fois technique, encyclopédique et inspiré est aussi un livre de gourmandise ouvert sur le monde, proposant de nombreux desserts d'ailleurs (Italie, monde anglo-saxon...). La structure de l'ouvrage, basée sur les ingrédients, reflète la philosophie d'Alain Ducasse : la technique ne doit pas dissimuler le produit mais le mettre en valeur, respecter sa nature propre. Au fil des recettes, on peut s'initier à ce savoir-faire à la fois ancien et nouveau, cultivant la justesse des proportions et laissant aux choses " le goût de ce qu'elles sont ". On évite l'excès de sucre, on recherche l'intensité des saveurs, la texture et la légèreté, la rapidité d'exécution. La pâtisserie est un art précis, mais aussi spontané et immédiat. Ce livre est la synthèse de la tradition pâtissière et de la modernité.
