Cake decorating

I do love reading and looking at how cake experts view their projects. How they are inspired and how they draw a design from their inspiration.

Over the last few years, I have purchased many many cake-decorating books. Some are worth every penny I spent. Those are the ones I am sharing with you here. That does not mean the others are not worth buying of course.
