Sinful Wedding Cakes4
This book is a mouthwatering treat! If you're a chocoholic and have a wedding in your future, this is a must-have. However, you will need another source for preparation and assembly information. If a book filled with lucious chocolate cakes can have a shortcoming, it would be the lack of preparation information. But that's okay; we're very happy we purchased it!

Too amazing to eat.5
This book is beautifully illustrated with stunning cakes for special occasions. The recipes and instructions are easy to follow, although I think you need a lot of practise to make such perfect cakes. Great to look at even if you don't turn the oven on.

spectacular chocoholic's dream!5
As an avowed chocoholic, I had to have this book also. It runs the gamut from dipping strawberries, making roses from chocolate paste and the best [in my opinion] on page 32, is a 3 tiered wedding cake with a marbled chocolate drape adorning all three tiers and secured at intervals with chocolate roses. There's also centerpieces, truffles, a list of suppliers, etc.
This is a must have for your library. The photos are incredible, everthing is clear!!!
