Creative Cakes 3D Cake Decorating September 18, 2008 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
This book has inspired me to create my own ideas and turn them into cakes for those special days. I have admired Carol and her work for the past few years and have spent a lot of time in her website looking at her remarkable work. I was excited to find out she had written a book and what a brilliant idea. Cakes are a wonderful way to personalize your love and affection as a gift. Being a novice and beginner I was very intimidated by the idea of making these 3D cakes but I couldn't believe how easy Carol makes it. The end result is both professional and beautiful. Every step is shown in full detail with photographs. I feel I could certainly have a go at making some of the cakes illustrated as I believe I can do it with her clear step-by-step guidance. I recommend that anyone starting out wanting to create a cake for that special occasion needs to buy this book and have a go.
A Good Gift Idea September 1, 2008 4 out of 4 found this review helpful
I was given this book as a gift and I really don't have any problems with it.
Firstly, I am not a professional cake decorator. It seems to me that the intent of this book is to teach newbie cake makers and busy moms how to throw together exciting cakes without going out and spending money on a shaped pans from Hobby Lobby that they will only use once.
I have looked at similar books in the past (although never bought any) and what struck me about this book is that although it's on the short side, the detail the author goes into with each cake is very helpful. I am not the most creative person with my hands, so the extra steps really helped.
The price is a little high, but I am very happy with this book.
