Cor blimey! This is one seriously sexy book... I agree it's more a reference book for inspiration rather than a recipe book, (although it does have several recipes and icing techniques included!) but even so it is absolutely beautiful. Seriously stunning photos of lots of incredible cakes, and worth the slightly high price. Perfect as a reference tool for experienced bakers, or as a source of inspiration for prospective brides/grooms.

Lovely to browse, but not for the novice decorator.

I enjoyed this book as a I design cakes myself so appreciate it from that
angle. Plenty of different ideas, but you must take into consideration these are american style cakes and their approach to design is very different to that here in the U.K. Cakes are constructed in a very different manner - often on site! Great as design source for established cake decorators looking for extra inspiration and who have the ability to adapt the ideas to take into account materials available here. Certainly not a "How to" book for the novice cake decorator looking to make their own wedding cake. More a "browsing" coffee table book.
