Mich Turner is London's top cake designer for society and celebrities alike. She has refined a simple and modular approach to entertaining-start with a dozen basic recipes and let the art of icings, glazes, and finishing touches be the key to perfection. This versatile guide is a sourcebook of ideas for celebratory treats, such as cakes, petit fours, and canapes for any event, formal or informal. The book begins with how to choose the right cake design (reflecting the venue and the season as well as the guest list and flower arrangements) and then details establishing the theme, the shape, the icing, and the flavor of the cake. The heart of the book is the step-by-step section on decorative techniques and designs that enable anyone, regardless of experience, to create show-stopping cakes with confidence and style.

This review is from: Party Cakes: Delightful Little Treats for Special Occasions (Hardcover)
I have 2 of her books and love them both. Each has recipes that actually work and TASTE GOOD. Each has design and finishing techniques that all levels of ability could do. Great for inspiration in my opinion. Some things look so intricate and are actually very easy to accomplish others take technique and practice...some I will probably never do but boy they look pretty.

This review is from: Party Cakes: Delightful Little Treats for Special Occasions (Hardcover)
Mich Turner has two books 1) Fantastic party cakes and 2) Party cakes. Don't be riped off, they are the same book, just different covers. Though the book is wonderful, it seems like it should be illegal to sell the same book under two different names.
