The key to cooking like Freddsters is adding a squeeze of lime and a whole lot of heart. So, grab an apron and let’s make it!
Alfredo Garcia (better known as social media sensation Freddsters) is a first generation Mexican American. Born in the Rio Grande Valley of Texas and raised in Chicago. His vivacious and loveable personality comes across in his viral content, where he explores the ways in which his American upbringing and his Mexican heritage blend in the kitchen.
Naturally, Alfredo’s cookbook also features Mexican-inspired versions of American classics and modern twists. You’ll learn how to master authentic Mexican staples, like how to make your own tortillas and cook a big pot of frijoles, and then you’ll be able to use those foundations to create over 100 fusion masterpieces. Think Jalapeno Popper Tacos, Chori-queso Baked Spaghetti, and Poblano Caesar Salad.
Whether you’re looking for a fresh twist on tres leches cake (try a bit of matcha powder!) or the most delectable pico de gallo to bring to the carne asada, Let’s Make It has got you covered.
Benjamin Delwiche, AKA Benjamin the Baker, is a math teacher by day and a renegade baking scientist by night. His obsession with sweets began in childhood, when he could be found devouring any cookbooks he could find. His keen interest led him to working odd jobs at local bakeries throughout his teens and college years, observing as much as possible about the craft.
In 2021, Benjamin began posting content that focused on the whys and hows of baking. For the past 2 years, he’s grown an engaged audience on TikTok (1.2M), YouTube (1.1M), and Instagram (596k). Like his classroom teaching, his videos center around explaining how baking works by offering specific examples and demonstrations. Most notably, what separates his content from the other baking and baking science videos is that it shows what happens when an ingredient substitution or a procedural step goes wrong–whether it’s because a creaming step was executed incorrectly or a meringue wasn’t whipped properly. He goes beyond simply repeating the same explanations without the procedures to back them up.
In his debut cookbook, Benjamin will apply his trademark scientific approach to home baking, offering a sort of “bake your own adventure” experience for readers. Beginning with the fundamentals any baker should master, Benjamin will then encourage readers to take those skills and run with them. The bulk of the book will focus on the recipes, which will be presented to encourage the reader to consider the techniques and science behind the recipe to help them customize for their desired flavor and texture outcome.
