What are some good cake decorating books?

admin — Sat, 26 Jun 2010 04:46:10 +0000

I want to get my friend a cake decorating book for her birthday because she loves decorating/making cakes. I do not know anything about cake decorating. What are seom good books on cake decorating?

Hi Lauren,
I’m a baking enthusiast. All of these books listed are on my wishlist. The cake decorators are world renowned and a household name for cake decorators such as myself. I’m very sure your friend knows a thing or two about them The Cake Bible has quality recipes (hundreds of cake recipes). The author is a leading expert on baking cakes. She even has a website dedicated to baker’s questions. I personally own Lesley Herbert’s Complete Book of Sugar Flowers. I love the diagrams and pictures and easy-to-follow instructions.

I loved Baltimore and really can’t wait to go again. The aquarium was amazing and had a great variety of sea animals to look at, not to mention a dolphin show.
My girls and I have watched ‘Master and Commander’ about 100 times (skipping some parts for the kids) so we’ve gained a pretty good knowledge of those kinds of ships. I’m the kind of mom that turns everything into a lesson so we all learn a great deal about whatever we watch. The US Constellation really brought the movie to life as we toured the captain’s quarters, viewed the great cannons, and the kids even got to take turns in a hammock.
It was also great going aboard the USS Torsk, I’ve never been on a submarine before but it’s an ocean vessel therefore it must be studied We borrowed a lot of books from the library when we came home from our trip and turned our living room into a kind of pretend submersible. I even made knobs and gauges so I could yell to the kids, ‘10 degree angle on the down planes, DIVE DIVE DIVE!!’, lol-even better, they knew exactly what to do
Most of the decorations on the ocean cake were done with various sized round tips. I got out one of our many ocean books to help me get the details correct. I was using some Viva towels that weren’t very smooth, hence the bumpiness of the cake. I also didn’t want to put any kind of border around the bottoms so I used a round tip, kind of filled it in, then used a paint brush to give it a little texture.
The beach cake was a lot of fun to do, most of the details again were done with round tips.
For the ‘cup’ cakes I used 2 regular cupcakes, put them into the cup, and filled in the top with buttercream.
Mo Willems-if you read this, know that we love your books! That pigeon is just too funny! My daughter got to decorate that cake because she read 50 books (lots of Boynton books, love her too). It was a challenge I gave to her older sister too when she knew how to read well enough to read a kids book all by herself. ‘Read 10 books and you get a lollipop, 20 books and you get a new toy, 50 books and you get to decorate your own cake.’ My 7 yr. old now reads chapter books, she just loves to read and is pretty much unstoppable
And that last cake, I was the assistant, my daughter was the head decorator I did maybe a total of 10% of the work that went into baking and decorating, she did the rest!

Box Lunch and Danny love cake

I heard this adorable song and I immediately thought of Box Lunch for some reason-it was light-hearted and silly, but cute. And I threw Danny in there because she didn’t have anyone to sing it with

I do NOT own any of the cakes! or cake cook books!

Does anyone recommend any particular cake decorating books? I love to bake and I want to try decorating cakes now, like wedding cakes and party cakes. Just for fun, maybe as a hobby.
decorating with fondant and coloring of fondant, cake structure, etc

Ice a cake with white icing, then get pink sugar & cover the sides of the cake, then take honey & make a checker board on top.

Pinch of salt
1 teaspoon sugar

Mix all ingredients and knead well. Then roll very thin on board. Cut or tear in pieces. The more ragged they are, the better they look. Fry in deep fat. Sprinkle with powdered sugar if desired.
