Cake Decorating Product Reviews

Reviews

I ordered this product to give as a present and wasn't sure it would arrive on time. I was plesantly surprised when it did. The book was very well packed and was exactly as described. Recommend this seller to anyone!

This book is my day by day Cake decorating book! Any doubt that I have I can find the answer inside. I totally recommend....

To be fair, I am not the target audience for this book, ie. a cake pro. I am an experienced home cake baker and avid reader of cookbooks on baking and decorating. I give this book a two star rating for originality and lots of pictures. Unfortunately, to me the visual style of these cakes is just off-putting in its (very American) garishness. They do not look like something one would wish to eat, in fact to me they are mostly amazing, can't-believe-this-is-a-cake eyesores. I'm sure they do impress a lot of people though which would make them ideal for corporate events, tacky weddings and such. This is not a fair review to be sure - I'm sure that people who would want a cake that looks just like the (hideous) thing on the cover will be pleased. However, the book won't tell them - or anyone else - HOW to make such a cake. It seems that the whole idea behind the book is to promote this "author's" cake-making business.

This book is amazing! So many great ideas. I love the included recipes. I highly recommend this book.

This book is absolutely amazing... the pictures, descriptions, recipes... everything about it is great! So nice to read (and see) Highly recommended! Kudos to Colette Peters :)
