easily achievable modelling skills of internationally renowned cake designer and

sugarcrafting techniques and clear step-by-step photography, designs are ideal
for both beginner and intermediate sugarcrafters. Whether you're creating a
single animal topper or a whole singing and dancing theme, this is the book to
show you how to do it the fun and easy way.
