5.0 out of 5 stars
fascinating
Charsley's treatment of wedding cakes is an interesting historical and social study. Feminists in particular will be intrigued and outraged by the symbolism that has gone into making the tradition of the wedding cake (particularly the cutting of the cake) what it is today. This book made me think about weddings in a whole new way.

Theory of Cake
Not what I expected. Quite interesting in a school lecturely kind of way, but not an easy read.

How do you expect us to spend 120$ on a cake book that does not show a single picture of the cakes that are in it?!
Revisited: Finally somebody did something smart and added " Look inside". Thank you!
