"My Decorating Bible"
5 stars"
Purchased on Mighty Ape

Wonderful! This book is brimming with cute, cool and extremely creative ways to decorate cupcakes. Takes you step-by-step on how to make wonderful cupcake creations.

Full of helpful tips and tricks for ‘how-to’ when decorating, such as how to coat in chocolate (mmm, chocolate) or make different expressions (for people) – which could lead to you coming up with your own wonderful designs. Although focused on the decorating aspect it also contains several pages on recipes for cupcakes and several types of icing.

A minor con: It is American so some of the food items have different names, e.g. chocolate melting wafers = chocolate melts (aka chocolate buttons). And some of the measurements are in ounces.

Highly recommended for anyone who wants some decorating inspiration, wants to start their own fancy cupcake decorating career or just have a laugh about a cupcake.

Description

This title offers witty, one-of-a-kind imaginative cupcake designs using candy and sweets from the local store.

Karen Tack and Alan Richardson show how to create funny, scary, and sophisticated masterpieces, using common sweets and snack items.

With these easy-to-follow techniques, even the most kitchen-challenged cooks can: raise a big-top circus cupcake tier for a child's birthday; trot out a line of confectionery 'pupcakes' for a dog fancier; serve sausage and pepperoni pizza cupcakes for April Fool's Day; and, bewitch trick-or-treaters with chilly ghost chocolate cupcakes, a white cupcake Christmas wreath, and Easter egg cupcakes.

No baking skills or fancy pastry equipment is required. Spotting the familiar items in the hundreds of brilliant photos is at least half the fun.
