Great for a beginner
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 16 years ago
I had never decorated a cake in my life, but my kids are getting to the age where we would need lots of birthday cakes. This book explains everything! I made my first cake last week and it came out great. The directions are simple and it is written in an easy to understand fashion. I think even if you know a thing or two, this book could help with tips and ideas you wouldn't have even thought of. A must-have for anyone who wants to decorate cakes!
