Cake Decorating Books For Beginners

Cake Decorating for Beginners is the perfect book for anyone wanting to learn to bake and decorate cakes! It includes super easy step-by-step photos that will guide you through cake decorating techniques, like smoothing or texturing frosting, handling a pastry bag, piping rosettes, creating a drip effect, hand lettering, and much more.

I'm so incredibly excited to share with you news that I've kept secret for months!! This past summer, I wrote a cake decorating book:

Cake Decorating for Beginners

And if you preorder the book through my link, you'll get a FREE exclusive printable bundle from me as a bonus! Find all the details at the bottom!

I've always said writing a book was on my bucket list. But I honestly never really thought or believed it would happen. But now it has. And I could not be more thrilled and excited to share it with you!!

Sorry (not sorry) for all the exclamation (!!!) points… I'm just bouncing off the walls!!!!

Mint Green Buttercream Cake with Pink Roses — This cake is not in the book but you could *totally* make it with skills taught in the book!

I started this blog way back in 2012 because I wanted to help cake decorators learn to decorate cake. I wanted to share recipes and tutorials and information that (at the time) were hard to find online when I was making my first wedding cake a couple of years earlier.

White Wedding Cake with Gray Ribbon and Yellow Gerber Daisies — *My first wedding cake way back in 2012 - it led to everything I'm doing now!*

To my great surprise, the blog became very popular and I found myself doing a job that didn't feel like a job at all. Every day I get to talk about, write about and work on CAKE.

It's a sweet life, for sure.

From way back then, when I couldn't find what I needed until now, writing a book for beginners... I feel like I've come full circle.

So, you may be wondering... what's in the book?

Let me give you a little preview... Cake Decorating for Beginners includes:

Cake walk-through--Get advice on cake prep, the cake decorating supplies you'll need, mixing custom colors, and troubleshooting for so many common cake issues.
Frosted tips--Frost like a pro with recipes for buttercream, chocolate ganache, fondant, and easy-to-follow directions on how to apply them.
Cherry on top--Show off your cake decorating skills with 10 scrumptious, stunning cakes--each with easy-to-follow instructions and colorful photos.

Other than sharing all of the basics that you'll need to know, I can't wait for you to see the TEN cake tutorials!
