3.0 out of 5 stars If you need a cookbook to help you use a cake mix...., January 18, 2009
This review is from: Betty Crocker Just Cupcakes: 100 Recipes for the Way You Really Cook (Betty Crocker Books) (Hardcover-spiral)
...then this is the cookbook for you! Okay, so it's not my nature to argue with the editors over at Betty Crocker. I own many Betty Crocker cookbooks, and some of them rank as favorites in my rather extensive cookbook collection. Unfortunately, I think this one is lacking.

Unlike the two other cupcake cookbooks I purchased at the same time (Crazy About Cupcakes and 125 Best Cupcake Recipes), there are very few "from scratch" recipes in this cookbook. It is mainly augmentations of cake mixes. While I appreciate the Sandra Lee-esque ease of this, it's just not my preference. This is not to say there aren't appealing ideas in this book -- but I think many of us could "invent" these without a cookbook.

I do think that there are several good decorating ideas here -- especially for kids -- which is what warrants at least 3 stars. The photos are great, and I feel like I could replicate many of the decorating ideas. I will take these ideas and apply them to the recipes I have in the other two cupcake cookbooks.

5.0 out of 5 stars Betty Crocker cupcake book, April 7, 2009
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Betty Crocker Just Cupcakes: 100 Recipes for the Way You Really Cook (Betty Crocker Books) (Hardcover-spiral)
I got this for my friend's teenage daughter because he is just getting into baking. I also got her the Betty Crocker Cookie Book. Love the Betty Crocker recipes. It's especially good too because it has picture of how the mixing and shaping should look as you go along and also has handy helpful tips on baking. She loved all the different kinds of recipes in it, just for cupcakes.

5.0 out of 5 stars Cute Ideas, April 3, 2010
By Ximena Lobato (Mexico City, Mexico) - See all my reviews
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Betty Crocker Just Cupcakes: 100 Recipes for the Way You Really Cook (Betty Crocker Books) (Hardcover-spiral)
I love cupcakes. I think they're an easy way to make dessert, prepare a gift, or just have fun. This book has a lot of cute ideas on how to decorate them beyond the usual frosting and sprinkles. It has suggestions for everything, from kids' parties to weddings, from the whimsical to the elegant, and for all seasons and holidays. If you're looking for inspiration on how to decorate your cupcakes, this is a great book to flip through. The ideas are simple and easy to make. And if you need further instruction (or if, like me, you're inept with a pastry bag), you can go to [...]. In the baking section there are videos that can teach you the basics. Happy decorating!

4.0 out of 5 stars more like a cookbook instead of a decorating book
I was hoping to see more decorations on cupcakes. But this is more like a cookbook with cake mix. There's still some good idea in there, but nothing new.
