This is a fantastic book, although i have no previous experience of making sugar flowers, it really explains every step in detail and makes it look easy! as the previous review mentioned that it really has a lot of sections and is a brilliant 'all in one' book, if you can only afford one book get this one!

I'm working on my first wedding cake for my brothers wedding in August 09. This book has been invaluable to me.
There are lots of different techniques explained and it helped me decide which kind of decoration to use.
I've decided on sugarcraft roses. The book shows you step by step how to make them.
It was definately worth buying this book as a novice cake maker!

I have done some basic cake decorating and sugarcraft but I wanted to advance to sugarcraft flowers with a view to making a wedding cake.
I was not disappointed! This book takes you from the recipes for the cake bases (sponges need to be more dense to hold the icing) through all the required tools and on to all the variety of decorative options.
The guide to the decorative techniques is fantastic, very clear step-by-step pictures together with excellent notes. I particularly like the section on how to design a wedding cake.
Although I have an artistic background, this book is so clear and cutters now readily available, with the aid of this book I truly believe that anybody could do it!
My only caviat is the title; a 'bible' implies that you won't need another book, but I would imagine that anyone wanting to decorate cakes for a living or more seriously would need to get another more indepth book specifically on sugarcraft flowers, probably another of Dunn's books, hence the 4 stars (it wouldn't let me give 4.5). Ironically, with a different, less ambitious title I would have given 5 stars.
However, that said, if you can only buy one book on cake decorating for special occasions, then this would have to be it. Not only suitable for weddings, this can be used for birthdays, anniversarys, christenings etc. Definitely one to buy, but as you progress you'll need another, so not quite a 'bible'.
