Cakes in Bloom

"Cakes In Bloom" is a culinary gallery of twenty new designs that will inspire cake makers to go beyond the original to create distinctive and personal cakes that will add a magical and sumptuous touch to any special occasion. With clear, step-by-step directions (and short cuts) for making full-size, hand-painting sugar flowers, ribbons, and stars, and for the cake's construction, anyone can produce these edible fantasies. Recipes for a chocolate torte and a fruit cake are included, too. Numerous illustrations and black and white photographs show the cake during each stage of creation, and full-color shots show the cakes in their final glory. Each step is easy and much of the preparation can be done weeks in advance. "Cakes In Bloom" is a highly recommended "how-to" reference that will grace any personal or professional cookbook collection.Von Marburg, Anna is the author of 'Cakes in Bloom' with ISBN 9781864482270 and ISBN 1864482273.
