All the decorations are edible: there are cakes decorated with traditional sweets, cakes decorated with candied fruit and cakes decorated with nothing but sugar paste cut and shaped into striking, witty and vivid designs a winners rosette, a peacock in all his finery, a dahlia in full bloom. Each idea is inspirational, but is also eminently attainable some easily achieved by children - and all suitable for any number of cake baking occasions from birthdays and anniversaries, to just producing something wonderful for tea. With basic cake recipes by eminent food writer, Rose Prince, Cressida Bells Cake Designs is beautiful, inspiring, and above all, fun.
