Synopsis

The much-awaited Cake Decorating with Grace Stevens follows on the success of Grace's previous book, Celebration Cakes. This book boasts more sugar flowers than the original, and also includes new fondant figures, wedding cakes and theme specific celebration cakes for Easter and Christmas. The interest in cake decorating has grown with television programmes such as Charley's Cake Angels, Cake Boss, Last Cake Standing and Ace of Cakes, with the result that an increasing number of people are trying their hand at decorating cakes and are looking for attractive and challenging designs. Cake Decorating with Grace Stevens will definitely appeal to this market. Grace's enchanting fondant figurines and cakes are unique, and the step-by-step full-colour photography and detailed instructions make their creation (including unbreakable lace and different hairstyles) highly achievable. The in-depth techniques section will also teach readers how to sculpt, fill, stack, ganache and dowel cakes.
