Format:Hardcover
This book is a must for anyone who is interested in making novelty cakes. The instructions are very well written and the pictures excellent. I have made most of the cakes in this book, most in between 2 and 4 hours(decorating time), they always look like the picture in the book - and believe me, I'm no expert. There's a cake for every age and occassion. A complete novice could easily get excellent results.

I made the castle cake on the front cover for my two year olds birthday party and it was a huge success. I have always bought cakes in the past for my girl's birthday party's, but am now a covert, a definate must for anyone wanting, but not daring to do it alone!!!

What I like of this book are the variations Carol gives for most cakes in order to simplify work for the less eperienced ones of us! Also the tools used are ordinary things you already can find in your kitchen. Figure modelling is made easy and the use of edible writing pens help enourmously to make different facial expression which are very funny. There is a special section at the back which explains more in detail how to make figures and animals, and also a troubleshooting section. Excellent book for both beginner and more advanced cake decorator.

Very good according to my daughter for whom it was bought.
I bought this and several others for my daughter living in Australia and she told me it was very good, she has yet to make her sons' 1st Birthday cake, but she's keen to use it.
