I was never able to make anything until I attempted some of the garnishes in this book. All my friends want me to make their parties a success with these clever designs. The book was easy to understand and the illustrations were Right On Target. A great investment for Everyone!

I was very excited when I received my book. Unfortunatly my excitement turned to dissapointment as I thumbed through the pages. While the book was filled with easy to do garnishes it was elementary and below my expectations. While the beginning of the book had some good points and conveyed a general understanding of garnishing, It was less than what I expected from 4 well educated chefs.

This book is good for beginner like me. This book teaches us how to garnish in simple way. One of the good things about this book is that it carries tools. For me it helps a lot because first I didn't know which tools to use. Another reason is that this book shows many fun ways to carve with cute & beautiful shapes. And that work with children who dislike eating fruits or vegetables. By seeing their cute shape, children are so fond of them that they eat it without knowing that they used to hate those particular fruits or vegetables. This is a useful book. Too bad the pages guidelines aren't colored. Plus the guide pictures are only drawn not photos. It will be nice if this book show actual pictures and colored. Anyhow the result is definitely beautiful but simple to make.

K. Well, I'm a 12 yr old who cooks. I can make lots of stuff, sushi is my specialty. One time, we were gonna have a dinner party, and I'm like, Wahoo! more people to feed sushi to. But theres gotta something more I can do. And then I go, I'll make it look pretty. So I go and order this book, and I get it, and then I try some simple stuff. It turned out great, everyone complimented on it. It would be better if the steps were illustrated w/ pictures, but they're only drawings. The do hve pics of wat it will turn out to look like.

This book was a little more fancy than I expected. I was just looking for simple garnishes.
