These cakes are so creative and amazing. Each design comes with ample detailed, visual descriptions of how to make them. Very inspiring and just a wonderful treat to even flick through in awe. There is a short summary of the fairy tale at the beginning of each cake featured. My five year old and I sit and read it together sometimes. She is entranced by the cakes and a bit of a budding marzipan artist! I also love the cake recipes at the beginning, offering a good variety of cakes suitable for decoration.

The cover image is Little Red Riding Hood so I assumed that the others inside would be of similar popularity. Not quite the case and I'll give you the entire list of those included:

-Hansel and Gretel
-The Frog Prince
-Aladdin
-Goldilocks and the Three Bears
-Cinderella
-Jack and the Beanstalk
-The Pied Piper
-Pinocchio
-The Princess and the Pea
-Puss in Boots
-Rapunzel
-The Snow Queen
-Little Red Riding Hood
-Rumpelstiltskin
-The Three Little Pigs
-The Nutcracker
-Thumbelina

The instructions were super detailed and well pictured. All those points where you need to have a visual reference to see if you're doing things correctly are covered for the ones that I tried. There are even templates! As far as that goes, this is probably the best book I have for showing a person what to do for any type of cake or food decorating. Hands down.
