Bees Adventures In Cake Decorating How To Make Cakes With The Wow Factor Berrie by Berrie, Bee B0721NZMK2 instant download after payment.

In 2016, my first recipe book, Bee’s Brilliant Biscuits, and – wow – what a wild ride it was! Creating the “holy grail of biscuit baking” was such an incredibly cool experience that I thought I’d have another crack at it! So, here goes
This time, we’re talking cakes and cake decorating; so, welcome, my caped cake crusaders, my decorating demons, to the baddest cake-baking book in town!
Let’s ’fess up to the truth: most home bakers know about the power of the classic sponge cake, and can knock out a pretty worthy creation without too much effort. So, how do you make your designs stand out from the rest of the Bake Off generation’s creations? By thinking outside of the cake box, that’s how.
I’m not an artistic person – that’s a fact. I studied microbiology at university and worked in medical science for years before even lifting up a palette knife. Because of this, the right side of my brain feels woefully underdeveloped, and I really struggled to find the confidence to get creative with my designs when I first set up the bakery, in 2012. I soon learned, though, that capturing a little flicker of an idea from another source, and letting it grow and build into an idea of my own, is what works for me. Looking at art (I’m talking print design, typography and illustrators on Instagram, here – not the old masters!), listening to the words in songs, forcing myself to learn the colours of the rainbow – these all spark ideas, which turn into cakes and bakes with personality.
This book covers many of the basic skills needed to make a great cake, from my favourite core sponge recipes and frostings, to tips and techniques on how to get straight edges when icing. There are instructions for making cool cake stands and funky cake toppers from scratch, and some fiddlier techniques to make your own paper and sugar flowers. Learn about the power of the piping bag and how to bring an old-fashioned technique, like making buttercream flowers, right up to date.
