There is no more fitting conclusion to a party or celebratory meal than a special cake. You’ll find the right recipe here, whatever event you are catering for: a child’s birthday party, a wedding reception or simply a well-earned cup of tea or coffee.

Included are authentic and exciting recipes for French croquenbouche and Italian panettone, for Austrian Sachertorte and Russian poppyseed cake, and novel creations that will delight your guests.

1.0 out of 5 stars Very dissappointing, 29 Sep 2009
By 
Y. Cooper (Suffolk) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: 500 Cakes (Hardcover)
I have tried 2 recipes now from this book and I think there must be errors in the recipes because both have turned out terrible. If you are thinking of buying this book....DON'T. I bake for a living so I know what I am doing and these recipes dont work!!

2.0 out of 5 stars disappointing - was hoping for magic from Apple publishers, 16 Aug 2009
By 
R. Guthrie "porschefly" (London, England) - See all my reviews

This review is from: 500 Cakes (Hardcover)
Years ago I bought a friend a wonderful book by Apple publishers called "cookies". I have hunted and hunted for a copy for myself but it is now out of print. You can imagine my delight when they released this series of books : 500 Cakes, 500 Cookies, etc etc. I immediately bought three different ones! Sadly the content is disappointing and altho' they've made an effort to include variations on each recipe, it's just dull dull dull. I might bake a few of these, but not unless I can find equivalent recipes in finer books.

(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: 500 Cakes (Hardcover)
Tried a several recipes in the book, they all taste great! Clearly, the recipes are tested. The book provided some basic recipes for cakes and suggested alternative ingredients so to modify the basics according to ones taste. Highly recommended.
