Ratings and reviews

Fun, fun, fun book! I was privileged to be a recipe tester for this book, and I had SO much fun trying out some of the recipes! Each week, my husband "got to" taste test a new recipe, and started asking what was next to try. My all-time favorite is the coffee-toffee fudge - we made it so much that I started gaining weight! All of these recipes are designed to be fairly easy to make, and also make you want to take your clothes off, if you get my drift :)

About the author

Amy Reiley is recognized as a leading authority on aphrodisiac foods. She's been featured in publications as varied as Playboy, National Geographic and The New York Times. She's also taught couples to cook on several reality shows and appeared on The Today Show, NPR's Wait Wait...Don't Tell Me! and even the runaway hit podcast, My Dad Wrote a Porno.

But her expertise in cooking began with dessert. Like many kids Amy had an insatiable sweet tooth. And as soon as her mother allowed her to use the oven by herself, she started making magic with butter, flour and sugar.

Eventually, as a freelance food writer, she became known for her work on aphrodisiacs. She earned her Master's Degree in Gastronomy from Le Cordon Bleu, with a dissertation on the relationship between food and sex in American pop culture.

In addition to speaking, writing and consulting on aphrodisiac foods, Amy is the Editor of EatSomethingSexy.com and a freelance wine writer and mother of two. Eat Cake Naked is her fifth aphrodisiac cookbook.

Delahna Flagg almost opted out of college to attend culinary school. But reason won out and Delahna earned her bachelors...and then headed off to Le Cordon Bleu, where she focused her studies on nutrition and food journalism.

After graduating from culinary school, Delahna went on to study physiology and nutrition, first with a BS from UCLA then at a masters and doctoral level. She also started a chef consultancy, cooking for clients with dietary restrictions.

As a chef for special needs clients, veganism inadvertently became Delahna's specialty. And instead of completing her doctoral dissertation as was expected of her, she took on the role of co-star in Pamela Anderson's web series, The Sensual Vegan.

Delahna currently heads research & development for a company that specializes in creating healthy items for the mass market. She also serves as EatSomethingSexy's Director of Nutrition. In her free time, she fosters dogs, working to improve their diets, of course!
