I received this book as a birthday gift from my husband. It was well worth the purchase price. This book has fantastic step by step instructions and photos that make what might seem like challenging projects more approachable for the novice cake decorator.

I am a pastry student and have used ideas from this book to help me deisgn projects for class. I feel that this book will add a great deal to my repitore of decorating skills on future projects.

I am very pleased with this book. :O)



5 out of 5 stars Beautiful Book, Great Ideas!   August 20, 2006

From geometric to whimsical to out and out gorgeous, the cakes in the book are a great inspiration to decorators at all levels. The recipes are British, but the decorating ideas are universal and the work is beautifully precise and clean. The step-by-step instructions are really well photographed and easy to follow. I just with the book were longer! I want more!
