Good but not great May 16, 2007 8 out of 8 found this review helpful
This is a good decorating book but not great. If you're an American ordering, be aware it is published in Great Britain and includes terms, cakes recipes, metric measuring system that can be hard to understand. The cakes are beautiful to look at in the pictures they include but not too easy to make. Some of the ingredients are hard to find here is the USA and the glossary of terms is more for European cooks. I love to browse the book but find my "Betty Crocker Cake Decorating Book" is more realistic to use.
Not what I was expecting January 17, 2007 5 out of 5 found this review helpful
This book has good information but when I read the title as "Beginner's" guide I thought I would get something that would allow me create decorated cakes with simple techniques. This book uses a lot of fondant and "european" style cakes. I was looking for a more informal type of instruction book. Overall, the book is O.K. but not what I expected.
