Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)When I bought this book, I thought I'd be getting a book which tells me more about using sugarpaste to decorate cakes, new techniques, designs, etc.... I was wrong. It doesn't even have the drapes in sugarpaste.
As it turns out, it is basically a book with pictures of cakes, which have been decorated on a base of sugarpaste. Even the parts where there is some modelling done in sugarpaste, it doesn't seen very well described, or illustrated. Definitely something of a dissapointment. It spends as much time on piping icing as it does on sugarpaste.
I also have 'The International School of Sugarcraft' for beginners, and that tells me all that I need to know, and is better illustrated. However, if you need pictures of cakes for ideas, this may be an okay book for you.
DEFINITELY not a book for beginners!! It has directions like 'Shape the shoe from sugarpaste'!!! I mean, if I knew how to do that on command, then I won't be needing directions - I'd just be buying books with cakes in them, and making them myself. So much for step by step instructions....
