5 out of 5 stars cake decorating Course I Discover Cake Decorsting   September 13, 2008
 1 out of 1 found this review helpful

I study baking few months ago, then I also study cake decorating to complete my course. The Cake Decorating Course I - Discover cake decorating is very informative. What I learn in cake decorating is also equally important just like my formal training in school. It helped me a lot even in choosing tips to decorate and the style of the flowers are fantastic! Thank you.

I just got the Wilton Kit for my birthday and then i ordered this book. It has a lot of good pictures. I need pictures to learn so this is great. It gives you a lot of ideas and tips for decorating. I will buy the other books because i am very satisfied with this one.


5 out of 5 stars A must have for the novice   November 27, 2007

If you have never decorated then this is a must have book. It shows you how to make frosting, fill pastry bags, and talks about the decorating tips you will need. It is very easy to understand for someone who have never decorated a cake. This is the perfect book to get your decorating hands going.


4 out of 5 stars take the course with it, prepare to shell out more $$ for tools   April 5, 2007

I just begin a Wilton cake decorating class #1 at Michael's, and this book comes FREE with the class which is $18 (instructor says these course books should retail about $3-5 at most).

You should take the class in addition to read this book, the experience of live teaching by an experienced instructor is invaluable. During this class, you will learn the beginner cake decoration techniques. It's a lot of fun, and if you don't want to proceed onto course II or III, it should be fine with just decorating your average cupcake, cookies and basic cakes. [[though most people love it so much that they do advance on..]]

however, I do have to caution that the course I tool kit you can buy ($19.99 @ Michael's) is only the bare minimum, it does not have all the things you will need for the first class. so be prepared to develop this hobby and pay more (~$20-40 depending on what you want) for other tool/tips/bags....



5 out of 5 stars Very easy to understand, step by step instructions   January 18, 2007

Just a note, you get this book free when you sign up to take the Wilton Cake Class Course 1 (at least you do at Michael's Arts & Crafts where I took mine)

The book is easy to understand, pictures are literally step by step and include instruction such as "offhand," meaning it will tell you that something should resemble an ice cream cone or look like a behive, to swirl here, or lightly brush here, sweeping motion, etc. I found it very refreshing not to all be spoken in terms that only people who attended culinary school would understand. It also shows you the pictures of suggested supplies you will need in the beginning of the book so your not running back to the store each time you start a new segment.

I would suggest just taking the class because on top of getting the book free, you do get a lot more tips and advice from the instructor that you can jot down in the ample space imbetween pictures and notes in the book. But if you too busy or there isn't a class scheduled near you, this book would certainly suffice in helping you get started!
