Romantic Wedding Cakes (Merehurst Cake Decorating)

I love, love, love this book. A bride who I am doing a wedding cake for asked for the "All that Glitters" cake so I went out and bought the book. I keep flipping through the pages. There is only one problem I see with it. Every cake requires many special tools, fondant cutters, etc. This is good and bad since while expensive, it brings the designs within the grasp of newbie cake decorators. The problem is that the desciptions of the tools are not clear enough to easily find them on the web. There is a list of suppliers but no indication of what came from where. The only suggestion I would have would be to have a list for every cake listing suppliers and actual model numbers for the tools.I'm looking forward to the next book by Kerry Vincent greatly.

This book is lovely. We have all see Kerry Vincent's work and there is probably nothing in this book you haven't seen already if you have a subscription to American cake decorating or if you watch the Oklahoma sugar art show. This book has a fair amount of insrtuctitons but just know you will have to pick up about 72 different molds and 10 pounds of luster dust to do these cakes! No, seriously.Cake decorating has come a long way and this book will remind you how far!This is not really my style of decorating but I think it is a good reference and I am keeping it just because, well... it's Kerry Vincent!

Fantasy cakes by one of the best, how can you go wrong? Kerry Vincent's artistry is amazing, yet she has solid, practical explanations on how to create these wonderful cakes yourself, assuming you are at an intermediate level of cake decorating. I found that techniques and ideas can be selected, adapted and applied to your own cake project, broadening your knowledge and increasing your skill level. You would use this book even if you weren't making wedding cakes. The large format and beautiful photography may have you assuming this is an idea book, but its definitely a working book too.

Very good product, my husband uses an airbrush to paint murals on cars and trucks, and he remarked that this was as good as his Binks airbrush. Thanks; Della D. Hindes

I love Kerry Vincent, and this book, is just PURE Kerry. It shows just how fantastic the lady is with her sugar work. I love it !

This book is strictly a master class book for people with prior and strong foundation in wedding cake art and design. NOT FOR THE FAINT OF HEART

They book had lots of pictures and explains every thing in full detail. It is worth buying for the cake decorated.

Wife likes it!

The book I received has a totally different cover but I presume it has the same content as the title is the same.I was overwhelmed with the beauty of the cakes in this book but I am a bit old fashioned. For anyone that likes topsy turvy and ultra modern, it isn't for you.I have already made the acanthus leaf cake 'although a smaller version and different colouring' for my granddaughters 21st birthday.I am a rank amateur only starting this craft at the age of 70, which perhaps helps as the designs in here are not easy, they take a lot of time and patience, (of which I have plenty).For anyone who is a bit more advanced in cake decorating, I would say that this book is essential. Even for those who feel the designs are beyond them, it is worth owning just to drool, because that's what I did and drooling turned into creating.

Great book

some good ideas in this book, quite a lot of brocade type designs. templates in back of book, which are helpful.more suited for intermediate users.

very pleased with quality of product

Afraid I returned this book as the designs were really old fashioned
