Here are 70 cake recipes for special occasions--baby and wedding showers, housewarmings, graduations, birthdays, and holidays, such as Christmas, New Year's, Easter, Fourth of July, Thanksgiving, Halloween, Hanukkah, President's Day, Mother's Day, and Father's Day. With decorative gels, candy, chocolate, mint leaves, coconut, food coloring, nonpareils, and sprinkles, an assortment of cake decorations can be created: gym shoes for an athlete, a car to send friends off on a trip, ballet slippers for an aspiring ballerina, basketballs, soccer balls, baseball caps, sailboats, snowmen, spaceships, trains, and teddy bears. There is a chapter on cake basics that offers tips on batter, on measuring ingredients, on using shortenings, eggs, and chocolate, on removing layer cakes from pans, on using dowels, on freezing and storing cakes, on using decorating bags, and on making rosettes, flowers, borders, and leaf designs. The finished book will have 57 color photographs and 96 line drawings. George Cohen

This review is from: Betty Crocker's New Cake Decorating (Spiral-bound)
This book is a fantastic book that covers all aspects of cake decorating. I have tried several recipes and must say that, through this particular book, I am hooked on this craft. The pictures are fantastic and the directions are very easy to read and comprehend. Also, the price of this book is an excellent value and bargain. I would highly recommend this book to anyone, without any reservation, even if you are novice cake decorator. The Christmas pine cone cake is great!
