Four books in one:

  2. a practical guide
  3. an exciting book that shows how creative and satisfying decorating can be

All equipment needed to achieve any decorated cake from one suitable for a three year old's birthday party to one for a visiting statesman's reception is presented in organized form. All essentials are both listed and pictured.
Close-up views of more than 150 decorating tubes, with examples, in actual size, of what each can shape in icing, are charted for quick comparison.
Six glowing color portfolios show cakes as works of art: happy cakes for children, exquisite flower-decked cakes, cakes to set the theme of joyful parties, holiday cakes in variety and thirty-five magnificent towering tier cakes the pinnacle of the decorator's art.
