Cakes & Cake Decorating
One of the most beautifully illustrated cook books I've seen. Great detail in preparation. Have made several cakes from this book and all have turned out as good or better than expected. In addition to the lavish color illustrations, this book os a treasure trove of unique and colerful theme cakes.

Sloppy at best
The book is poorly done. Many of the cakes that they have used for the book look sloppy or have cracks in fondant. The techniques that they show are simple and better explained (and done) in other books I have read or own. The party and novelty cakes are hokey, poorly done, and not very good looking.

The techniques that they show are simple and better explained (and done) in other books I have read or own. The party and novelty cakes are hokey, poorly done, and not very good looking. The cake recipes that they use are basically all fruit cakes, as if a fruit cake is the only thing that will stand up when you do lots of decorating, which is definitely not true. Although it is very simple and cheezy, it does have good picture quality on the pictures and lots of them in the book which I liked. It also provides some recipes and ideas that can be used and tweaked so that they inspire greater cakes. Not worth the money and many other books are much better for the same price or even less.
