The cakes presented in this collection would cost a fortune in any prestige bakery but most are surprisingly easy to assemble. It's amazing what a curl of chocolate, shards of toffee or a delicate arrangement of fresh flowers can add to even the simplest of cakes. This work shows how easy it all is with step-by-step photographs, and includes cakes for weddings, birthdays, christenings, engagements, Valentine's Day and Mothers Day as well as classics that have earned their fame many times over.
