Perfectly Gross!!!,
By
This review is from: Gross-Out Cakes: The Kitty Litter Cake and Other Classics (Paperback)
Just as the title suggests this book is really gross - and so are the recipes - which makes your whole baking experience perfectly gross!!!BUT as gross as these desserts may look - they actually taste just yummy - that is once you get over the fact that you are eating something called Doggy Doo Doo Drops, Blood Clot Cake or Toenail Torte with Toe Jam Filling!!! I think I'll stop there - I'm sure you've got the idea!!! You've got to check this book out - even your kids will be grossed out!!! Now if that isn't a good sign - I don't know what is!?!

This review is from: Gross-Out Cakes: The Kitty Litter Cake and Other Classics (Paperback)
This was a fun and really neat book, but in all honesty they aren't really recipes. Nearly every one calls for cake box mixes, store bought cookies and prepared frosting. I realize that this book is likely aimed more for parents to make with kids so the aim is to do as little actual work in the kitchen as possible.However, as a Halloween nut and someone who loves to bake, I was left feeling like all I got were ideas that I would have to research myself to figure out how to make without resorting to prepackaged cake mixes and frosting. Good book, but it could have been sold as an online PDF of "ideas for cakes" for much less. I was left feeling kind if disappointed.
