Cake From Lucie shares the story and signature recipes of Lucie Franc de Ferriere, the owner and head baker of From Lucie, a whimsical East Village bakery known for flower-adorned pastries. Raised in Southern France on her family’s 165-year-old chateau bed-and-breakfast, Lucie found her way back to baking after moving to New York City, eventually turning her nostalgic pop-up creations into a beloved bakery.

The book blends personal stories with approachable recipes that highlight her signature style—less-sweet baked goods that let subtle, creative flavor combinations shine. From everyday bakes to showstoppers, it includes recipes like Zucchini Honey Mascarpone Cake, Chamomile Cake with Strawberry Sumac Jam, Blueberry Fennel Loaf, Blood Orange Olive Oil Princess Cake, Salted Dark Chocolate Chip Cookies, and a Tiramisu Charlotte.
