 Must Have Jun 06, 2009
By SC Wren
This is an absolutly wonderful book. It's very informative and is good for people who are just starting out because it goes into a lot of detail about how to do some basic designs. I thought the cakes in the book were also very nice, there were very few that I did not like. There are step by step instructions on how to do all the cakes pictured in the book.

Complete, Informatvie and Helpful Sep 05, 2010
By Mary F. Munguia
This book containes a variety of information on how to make flowers, use tips and how to create designs. I have taken the Wilton classes, but this book had some things we did not learn in class. The book also containes the tools you will need for the projects, as well as cutting guide information. The plus in buying the book is the recipes for various types of icing and the icing chart. It is an overall great book for beginners and even for those of us with a little experience.

 Ok, but nothing super exciting Aug 03, 2010
By Shannon L. Toohey
This is an ok book for a new cake decorator. It recovers a lot of the stuff already covered in the instruction booklets (beginning cake decorating and flowers and borders) and gives some full cake ideas.
I like the instructions and have been using them as a supplement to the instruction books to have ideas of decorations to practice. However, the cakes themselves are nothing super exciting.
This is the sort of book you buy when you're starting out and use until you have the skills down pretty well - then you would probably never use it again. I just can't see myself pulling this book out for "cake decorating ideas" when there are so many better idea books out there.
Honestly, if you weren't getting this on a 4-for-3 promotion or it was on sale for about 10 bucks I wouldn't bother with it.

Basics Are Covered....Beautiful Book Aug 03, 2010
By Lucy Fresina
I absolutely love this book! Before purchasing, I found myself gathering bits and pieces of information from the wilton site to make the flowers and borders that I wanted, but this book puts them all together neatly without leaving anything out. I recently purchased Colette's Cakes which is also wonderful, but so much of it is advanced, and I'm just not there. I only decorate for fun. This book sticks to basics which, for me, is essential to focus. If I see to much detail I tend to become frustrated and over anxious. Then I end up giving up. So, with this book I can actually follow the process and learn step by step without the frustration.
The only small disappointment was the weight of the cover. The paper is a bit thin and will need some support or will probably not hold up very well. Nothing a little clear contact paper can't cure though, so no big deal.
