Pictures...not how-to's

Got this book when the company called to renew my membership. Sounded ok, but if I had known it was only pictures with only a few very common frosting & fondant recipes, I would have passed. I am returning this book.

It is exactly what its called -1000 Ideas
June 07, 2011
There are 1000 photographs of the finished products varying from wedding cakes to cookies, for most of the life's occasions and apealing to different taste. There are also basic recipes for frosting, ganache, royal icing, fondant, gumpaste, and marzipan. As previous reviewers stated there are no instructions on how to decorate. People who will enjoy this type of book are ones who have experience in cake decorating, not the beginners. All in all a very pretty book.

Something Nice to Look At in a Waiting Room!

This book is beautiful! The photos are gorgeous, but if you are beginning baker looking to enhance your own skills, this is not the book for you. You have to have previous decorating skills or you will need a very vivid imagination because there are no instructions with any of ideas presented.

for the experienced decorator only

I was going to give this book to a friend for Christmas since she has recently developed an interest in cake decorating, but had to return it since there were no instructions. While the photos were nice (if a bit small), I think you would need to be an experienced decorator in order to correctly copy and of these ideas. Definately not recommended for a beginner.

Not What I Expected
December 15, 2010
Perhaps the description could do a little better job of letting you know that there are no instructions whatsoever on how to make any of the things that are pictured in the book. I bought this for my niece who has become hooked on baking hoping it would teach her some fun things. The only directions at all are a few basic recipes for frosting, etc. Disappointed.
