Description: Forget the image of maiden aunts and country fairs--cake decorating has become cutting edge, and Peggy Porschen is at the front of this trend. Her cute designs have won her a host of celebrity clients: she provided the chocolate Faberge eggs for Elton John's White Tie and Tiara Ball and designed the stunning cake for Stella McCartney's wedding. Her book begins with an easy-to-follow introduction showing all the equipment, basic recipes, and techniques needed to make the cakes. Readers of all skill levels can go on to the subsequent chapters: Cookies, Cup Cakes, Miniature Cakes, and Large Cakes. All the designs have comprehensive instructions and clear photography so that a stunning, professional finish can always be achieved.
