The Dead Celebrity Cookbook Recipes Collection
The Dead Celebrity Cookbook – A Collection Of Favorite Recipes Of Hollywood's Most Beloved Stars. For anyone who loves Hollywood memorabilia, is an entertainment junkie, and loves to eat and cook – they will treasure Frank DeCaro's The Dead Celebrity Cookbook: A Resurrection of Recipes from More Than 145 Stars of Stage and Screen (HCI Books). Frank compiled favorite recipes from some of Hollywood's biggest names; including Lucille Ball, Elizabeth Taylor, Sonny Bono, Liberace, Michael Jackson, John Denver, Frank Sinatra, Rock Hudson, Humphrey Bogart, and Peter Falk, just to name a few.
"I love these dead celebrities! They're the stars I grew up watching, and they deserve to be remembered even if they were more talented on screen than they were in the kitchen. Frank clearly worships them as much as I do, and after reading The Dead Celebrity Cookbook you will, too." -Rosie O'Donnell
"Celebrities die--eventually--but their recipes live on, thanks to Frank DeCaro's thorough and thoroughly delicious book. DeCaro's dry wit is tasty, and judging from these yummy concoctions, most of these celebs died really happy!" --Michael Musto, Village Voice
Inspired by a "Dead Celebrity Party" during his college years, DeCaro thought the one thing missing from the event was the food of the dead. Since then, he's been collecting recipes of the stars and lucky for us, he's put them together in, THE DEAD CELEBRITY COOKBOOK: A Resurrection of Recipes from More Than 145 Stars of Stage and Screen (HCI Books – October 2011- $19.95).
DeCaro, who is best known for his nearly 7-year stint as the movie critic on The Daily Show with Jon Stewart, and now heard weekdays on his own call-in radio show, gives us a giggle while feeding us treats from Tinsel Town like: Liberace's Sticky Buns, Mae West's Fruit Compote, John Ritter's Favorite Fudge and Bea Arthur's Vegetarian Breakfast.
THE DEAD CELEBRITY COOKBOOK is here to remind you that before there were celebrity chefs, there were celebrities who fancied themselves as chefs. They were whipping up culinary delights, and sometimes sharing them with us on shows like Merv Griffin, Mike Douglas or even Johnny Carson. DeCaro gives us some entertaining and informative commentary before each section of recipes in chapters that include: "Talk Show Chow," "An All-Night Oscar Buff," and "I Lunch Lucy," a whole section dedicated to the red-haired TV goddess.
Says DeCaro, "I miss those days when celebrities still had mystery about them, and a glimpse inside their radar ranges seemed, for any fan, like a window into the world of glamour and excitement, which is why I put together this book." This book delivers recipes that the stars are dying for you to make.

Brini Maxwell, author of Brini Maxwell's Guide to Gracious Living and creator of felixpopuli.com: "I adore this book so much I find myself on the horns of a dilemma--make the recipes or kill myself so I can be in the sequel."
Bruce Weinstein and Mark Scarbrough,, bestselling authors of more than twenty cookbooks including Lobsters Scream When You Boil Them and 100 Other Myths About Food and Cooking: "Hankering for star-powered recipes? With this laugh-out-loud encyclopedia of Hollywood culinaria, Frank DeCaro brings out the real 'celebrity chefs' in spades. Or with a spade."
Lisa Lampanelli, comedienne: "Frank DeCaro has the most delectable treats I've ever tasted -- and the recipes aren't bad, either! My dying wish is to have one of my recipes in The Dead Celebrity Cookbook II. Anyone for the Queen of Mean's 'So-Good-You'll-Slap-Yo-Mama Chicken 'n Waffles'?"
Bob Smith, author of Remembrance of Things I Forgot: "Frank DeCaro's two obsessions--food and the famous--have been hilariously united in The Dead Celebrity Cookbook. Reading Frank is like breaking your diet with your funniest best friend."
