About this title

Synopsis

"The mouth-watering photos are enough to send you running to the store for baking equipment and ingredients.gorgeous.works of art.a very good chapter on equipment.Recipes are clearly explained and a wealth of photographs and illustrations ensures that even novices will have success with their cookie-making marathons."--New York Daily News

Once you get hooked on making these delicious decorated cookies, you'll want to create occasions to bake more! The recipes are simple, from gingerbread to shortbread, sugar cookies to chocolate. What makes these extra special are the techniques and tools to make them look special: ruffled bibs in soft pastel hues for a baby shower, a white chocolate rose with eight petals, or a 3D bride and groom for wedding and anniversary celebrations. You'll make these effects with confidence thanks to the author's clarity and creativity, especially when it comes to incorporating tools such as paintbrushes, a quilter's wheel, an X-acto knife, embroidery scissors, and the simplest instructions we've seen yet on piping.
