 A lovely and practical book April 3, 2004
21 out of 22 found this review helpful
Toba Garrett has succeeded in creating a beautiful book, full of lovely cookies that is also practical in that she presents each component of the process separately and then ties them each together in simple, easy to follow directions. Recipes, decorating technique and specific designs are each presented in such a way that mastery is simple and the user can easily create his or her own designs using the lessons learned. An excellent book for the creative and curious home baker.

Easy to follow and fun March 26, 2003
26 out of 26 found this review helpful
This book has very well laid out instructions and beautiful photos, which makes it very easy to follow. You can go through the sections one by one to learn different decorating techniques. And there are a lot of different ideas in the book, so you can enjoy creating new decorated cookies for a long time.One nice thing is that the book also tells you how well each dough and icing stores and how to store them, so you don't have to use an entire batch at once. I've found that it takes a little practice to get the consistency of the icing just right and to get a steady hand to outline and draw on cookies. And it takes a lot of setup time (e.g. making several colors and types of icing) to duplicate the cookies shown in the book. But overall, I think they can be duplicated pretty well even by an amateur.
 Nice book for true decorator February 23, 2003

I ordered this book expecting fun creative ideas in decorating cookies with my children. I found that it is very creative, with tons of ideas but i just cant find the fun of making those cookies with my children. The pictures are beautiful, even if its too advance for me, I will keep it for future reference, (may be when my kids are older) :D.
"STEP-BY-STEP" BOOK WITH PICTURES, ILLUSTRATIONS & RECIPES October 31, 2002

Great book for the novice cookie decorator! It's full of ideas for all occasions. It takes you through each beautifully decorated cookie, showing you a color picture of what the finished product will look like, giving you the recipes to use (both for the cookie and for the icing/decorating) and giving illustrations on exactly how-to-do-it and what decorating items and recipe ingredients you'll need to complete the chosen product.
