5.0 out of 5 stars Fantastic cakes
The resemblance of the cartoon characters that are crafted in cake is simply unbelievable. The designs look very intimidating at first, bu once you get over the first hurdle and just start, you will find that with the concise step-by step instructions and many pictures, you can't go wrong.
Be prepared to spend many hours on a cake, and be prepared to get a standing...

2.0 out of 5 stars Cartoon Cakes...not as easy as it looks
This is definitely not a book for beginners...or anyone that doesn't have experience in making clay figures. The intstructions were not that easy to follow. If you followed the written intstructions the characters will not necessarily look like the ones in the book. Maybe I may be a bit of a perfectionist, but I would think if I am making the Flintsones they should look...

Fantastic!

2.0 out of 5 stars Cartoon Cakes...not as easy as it looks, February 18, 2008
This review is from: Cartoon Cakes (Warner Brothers) (Hardcover)
This is definitely not a book for beginners...or anyone that doesn't have experience in making clay figures. The intstructions were not that easy to follow. If you followed the written intstructions the characters will not necessarily look like the ones in the book. Maybe I may be a bit of a perfectionist, but I would think if I am making the Flintsones they should look exactly like the Flintstones. I did manage to make the Flintstones cake and it took quite a bit of time to create each character. After spending so much time making Fred, Barney, Wilma and Betty, I didn't have enough time to make Pebbles, Bam-bam or Dino. What a monster of a project to take on!!!!

I do enjoy looking at photos in the book because I think the creater did an amazing job. It makes a great book for a coffee table!!!!

4.0 out of 5 stars Great Book!, January 13, 2012

This review is from: Cartoon Cakes (Warner Brothers) (Hardcover)
I love all of the cakes in this book. I made the Tom & Jerry Cake that is on page 29. Some of the directions are not as clear as they should be, so you have to look at the pictures and reread the directions over and over to make sure you got it. For example, when she starts explaining how to make Tom, she tells us to look at the picture to make his ears & his fur. She really doesn't explain how to attach the ears or the pieces together, but sugar glue is listed in the tools/supplies needed so it's clear (to me) that sugar glue is used for that purpose. Another example would be constructing Jerry's eye lashes. Jerry is sooo small and he's hard to make.I wish there were step by step pictures of how to make Jerry's eye lashes & mouth (like it was for Tom's mouth).

If you get this book, it's a great idea to have some knowledge of fondant and gum paste, as that will help you with a lot of these cakes. I've been cake decorating for 4 years and I'm still learning. So, some techniques are still new to me. Overall, I think this is a great book with great pictures. I would recommend this book to people at all skill levels.
