Diet When You’re Dead. This was the mantra Yasmin Newman lived by in her three-month immersion in New York, where she ate 373 sweets (that’s not a typo) across 169 venues, from bakeries, diners and street carts to cool cafes and fine diners.

“I was eating about four to five desserts a day in different neighbourhoods,” says Newman.

Those 373 sweets have been catalogued in her new book The Desserts of New York (And How to Eat Them All), part hit-list, part travelogue, part sugar-junkie diary, part cookbook with recipes from Newman inspired by her Gotham dessert spree. (Read about how she ate all those desserts here.)

We're giving you the chance to win one of five cookbooks, valued at $39.99 each.

Here's a taste of what's inside the book:
Filled with luscious peanut butter mousse and sweet strawberry conserve, this is the ultimate New York-Italian mash-up.
