Synopsis
Sylvia Weinstock makes cakes that astonish the palate, dazzle the eye, and reward the spirit. Her spellbinding cakes have graced the tables--and grabbed the attention--at society weddings, celebrity birthday parties, and inaugural balls. Whether it's a tower of white roses whose thousands of blossoms have all been painstakingly hand-crafted or an entirely faithful--and entirely edible--facsimile of a treasured heirloom tea set, every Weinstock cake is a work of art. "Never say never" is Weinstock's response when clients dare her to achieve the impossible: an array of miniature cakes shaped and decorated like Faberg eggs; cakes that look like cars, cravats, and circus clowns; or a menagerie of fantastic creatures (bunnies, bugs, tigers, terriers, and even an armadillo), all concocted from butter, flour, and sugar. In Sylvia Weinstock's Sensational Cakes , America's most famous cake designer gives you an insider's tour of her world: the fabulous f tes where her cakes set the scene and the artisanal workshop where she and her assistants bake and embellish the confectionary masterpieces that have made her signature--including her trademark eyeglass logo--so sought after. Best of all, she reveals some of her secrets: recipes for cakes, frostings, and fillings that will make your own guests stand up and applaud., Sylvia Weinstock makes cakes that astonish the palate, dazzle the eye, and reward the spirit.

    I appreciate the deal I was able to get on both books I ordered. They came as pictured and described in the listing and look good! My only complaint is the packaging could be better, I got two paperback books that were not shipped in a box but rather and envelope and one of the covers arrived bent. So I would recommend the seller use bubblewrap or a box to ship future orders.

  • Gorgeous In Every Way

    Fabulous book. The artistry of the cakes and decorations is phenomenal. Words cannot describe how beautiful the book is. You have to see for yourself. I have not been able to read all the text yet, just have paged through what is an extraordinary book that I am so happy to have.

  • Cakes truly are sensational and inspirational

    Good inspiration for ideas even if I could never do this awesome of a job with a cake! Recipes are in the back of the book and artificial flowers could be used.
