I absolutely love this book because it has fun and creative ways for making birthday cakes, and it uses the basic cake recipes...9x13, round, square, and bundt. I was given this book about 4 years ago, and we have made over half of all the cake designs--I am not that artistic either! For the longest time I haven't been able to find this book, but when I came across it online, I bought a couple and told all of my family so they could enjoy them the way we have. My kids love the opportunity to select their special birthday cake, and the hardest part is remembering to pick up the candy to decorate with. If you have children at home, and you like to celebrate birthdays with cake, I would strongly recommend this book.
This is NOT a book with cake recipes. This is a book about how to decorate birthday cakes using common, everyday things you would have on hand or be able to acquire easily. They turn out darling! My friend already had this book, so I had seen it before and wanted one for myself. I am not a person who does traditional cake decorating. But I look forward to using the ideas from this book to create cakes for the birthdays in my family.
Great book to use with kids or grandkids to make unique cakes for special times together. Much more than just birthday ideas--there are great color pictures and many different designs to choose from for lots of creative cake memories.
I bought this book for my daughter. She likes to cook and bake and since she has a one year old daughter, I thought she would like a book with ideas on how to make adorable birthday cakes for little ones. She loved it and I'm looking forward to see which one she makes in September!
it did have cute ideas about cakes. i thought some of mine were better.lol but all the same is did give me some great ideas. really glad i did get the book. its great for starters.
