Cakes to Dream On: A Master Class in DecoratingReviewsCollete's instructions are very thorough. I followed her directions and I was very satisfied with my cakes. Beautiful pictures, too. Just a word of warning - these cakes are advanced and they take a while to construct. Also, she uses a lot of airbrushing, for which you need special equipment. Everything has been perfect. Even it arrived before the deadline date. A high quality product. This is not really designed for a beginner, although they would definately find the photos inspring, but more for the intermediated to advanced baker. The photos are gorgeous, yet the cakes are not so complicated that the average baker with general knowledge of cakes, fondant, gumpaste, etc... couldn't reproduce themselves. This is a beautiful book, a detailed 'all about cakes' book that you will want to garnish your kitchen or even your coffee table for a real conversation starter. The photographs of these outstanding cakes are superb and the directions give a 'regular' cook confidence to try something that seems difficult. Well written and laid out in a concise manner. Give yourself plenty of time to peruse the pages of this book! You will enjoy it! Very beautiful cakes, it wasn't as good as her other book, but was still a good source. Average Rating:  |
