Divided into three sections, this book caters to all different types of weddings. Nadene Hurst writes about royal-iced wedding cake designs ranging from stylized collars and panel work to special techniques such as stringwork, brush embroidery, stenciling and airbrushing. Julie Springall focuses on sugarpaste wedding cakes, offering wonderful and distinctly different ideas, ranging from an Art Nouveau design to New England folk art.
