Digital Edition - Afternoon Edit by Barbara Grimoldi

A contemporary approach to afternoon pastry, where the break becomes a designed moment of balance, care, and quiet luxury.

In Afternoon Edit, Barbara Grimoldi gathers 20 all-natural recipes—cookies, travel cakes, and baked treats —conceived to structure and elevate tea time into a consistent, refined experience. Each creation is built around balance: between flavor and lightness, aesthetics and nutrition, simplicity and precision.

Free from refined sugar and often plant-based or gluten-free, the recipes are conceived as reliable, adaptable bases—designed to be reproduced with consistency while allowing multiple applications, from simple everyday service to more refined compositions.

Each recipe is accompanied by detailed nutritional information, including calories and key macronutrients, along with dietary labels highlighting allergens and suitability for specific dietary requirements. Through guidance on mise en place, pairings, and different service scenarios—from private settings to hospitality environments — Afternoon Edit becomes a working tool for chefs, hosts, and professionals looking to transform an afternoon break into a distinctive and memorable moment.
