Good Book

This is a really nice book. Especially for those who like to know everything on cake decoration, like my mother as she is the one who appreciates this form of art more than I. She enjoys the content of this book. I guess it a book worth having.

Excellent Book--Stunning Pictures

This is a Unique and Creative Cake Decorating Book with Large, Colorful, and Stunning Pictures. It definitely stands apart from the other Cake Decorating books I have read. It has simple, step-by-step instructions that cover how to make each cake and cake frosting as well as each decorating technique. It also covers a large variety of cakes including: Holiday Cakes, Special Occassion Cakes, Kid's Birthday Cakes, Fruit Cakes, Roll Cakes, Theme Cakes, Wedding Cakes, etc... This book is filled with fun ideas and it is definitely a Must-Have for any Cake Lover.

A very good book!

Last year, I asked my friend Katty, who lives in the United States to order this book for me (I still have some problems to order from here). The matter is that I was not actually sure if it would be a good book. Now, I do not repent having bought it. It is a very good book, all recipes have a beautiful photo, and you can find basic recipes in it: layer, fruit cake, glacé, frostings, and more. Explanations are very clear too. Be sure you will find many creative ideas here. Buy it!
