Product Description

The wedding market is a $32 billion business. Experts say that brides–to–be generally buy every book and magazine they can get their hands on when planning a wedding, and yet, remarkably, The Wedding Cake Book is the first cookbook of its kind –– a gorgeous idea book that really shows you how to bake a beautiful wedding cake. There are 30 complete recipes in all, with detailed, step–by–step instructions. A one–of–a–kind resource, with gorgeous photography throughout, The Wedding Cake Book is sure to become a classic cookbook among bakers, and makes the perfect shower gift.


From the Author

Bakers, brides and party planners will all find inspiration.
The book is aimed at avid home bakers who want to make their own cake, or a friends, as well as at caterers, brides, and party planners to use as an idea book. Don't mistake this for a coffee table book.The cakes were all designed with taste first and foremost in mind, and the cakes can be used for anniversaries, birthdays, graduations, or other occasions where a larger cake is needed, like a pot-luck or bake-sale. I welcome comments and suggestions from readers. Sweet inspiration in your baking!

2.0 out of 5 stars The wedding cake book, 14 Nov 2003
By A Customer
Although the recipeis sound delicious they are all very 'American' what we in the UK would call a dessert. Very creamy with cream/buttercream frostings. No traditional British royal iced or fondant iced cakes at all. Also BEWARE all the recipes are in American measurements with no conversions. Also peculiar amounts in some such as '3 cups & 2 tablespoons'of flour. Very fiddly to measure out. I weighed this & it was actually 800g! this would have been easier!
OK if you really want this style of cake & have lots of time to make them as lots of the recipes are very time consuming.

5.0 out of 5 stars The One Book To Have!, 29 May 1999
By A Customer
This is it! If you could choose only one book on wedding cakes, you would want one that covers the art from beginning to end---and this one does just that. I particularly like this book in comparison to the others because the emphasis is on taste, as well as looks. The cakes are not your typical piped & overpiped powdered sugar towers most of us have come to know as the typical wedding cake. Most of the cakes can be made by someone who has a pinch of ability and can follow directions. But you do not need decorating experience (I proved that last August when I made a friend's wedding cake). The recipes may not all be conventional (very few aren't), but there is something here for everyone. I admit, even I had a little trouble when my friend picked out the Buttermilk Spice Cake recipe from the book to mix with two tiers of a Kahlua fudge recipe--and DeDe's Kahlua buttercream for all three tiers--but my little test cakes turned out to be downright delicious. And the wedding cake was an absolute success! Even the caterers took pieces and raved about them! Wonderful book! Thanks DeDe!!

5.0 out of 5 stars An excellent resource for wedding cake instruction., 7 Aug 1997
By A Customer
Not only are her cakes beautiful, her recipes are wonderful. Dede Wilson covers all the basics of how to create quality wedding cakes and provides the technical knowledge to create a wedding cake from scratch. For anyone interested in cakes, cake decorating or specifically, wedding cakes, this book is essential. It's also a great addition to a cookbook collection as its production values are top quality.
