Doable projects even for me! November 8, 2008
I love this book! I have never been able to make pretty cakes or cupcakes let alone trying to create animals, faux food, etc. But now I can! They may not be quite as pretty as in the book but they still look good. My 2-year-old loved the monkey cupcakes I made for her birthday. And I just finished the shark/ocean-themed cupcakes for my son's birthday. Sometimes I have problems finding some of the ingredients for the projects but it's easy to substitute other things. For example, I couldn't find mini ice cream cones to make the buoys so I just shaped the Twinkies that were left over from making the sharks. I can't wait to make the turkey/place card cupcakes for Thanksgiving!
Great ideas! November 8, 2008

I love this book! Although I have been cake decorating for 25+ years I found this book to be very useful and easy to follow. There were a lot of really cute ideas. I have only tried a few so far but I know I will be using it alot more in the future. My 9 year old can't wait to make the tv dinner cupcakes!
Fantastic! A must have. November 4, 2008
This is a fantastic book with simple, clear, descriptive instructions and large detailed photographs. The small cupcakes are much less intimidating than a large cake for new decorators (honestly, if you bake a batch, you can practice on a few and eat those right away!). I received this as a gift after having it on my Amazon wish list for months. Don't bother thinking about it -- this one is a must have!!
Good and Cute November 1, 2008
The first time I saw this book in the store, I fell in love with it. The pictures are beautiful and the decorations are cute and ingenious, but I put it off thinking I really didn't need another recipe book. I decided I wanted to make cupcakes for my daughters first birthday and in preparation have been trying out a lot of time consuming recipes, not being very happy with the results, I purchased this book online and have tried out the chocolate and pumpkin cupcakes. Both were a great success and everybody that has been trying out my cupcake attempts for the past few weeks said that the pumpkin ones are their favorite so far.
I really recommend this book mostly if you want to be inspired to create fun and cute cupcakes; but if you are looking for a lot recipes, this might not be the book for you, it has a just a few but they are very good non the less and fast too, which will let you concentrate on the decoration part more.
Lov'in Hello Cupcake October 31, 2008
Fantastic decorating for a beginner cupcake decorator like myself. So glad I came across this book. Everybody I know loves cupcakes and its such a pleasant surprise to them when I offer cupcakes rather than a slice of cake. Hooray to the authors.
