I got this book after readingHow To Decorate A Cake(good book too and recommended) to see what other creative cake ideas are out there. Some of the cakes in this book truly are amazing. The Dragon cake was one of them. I would not even attempt some of them though, especially the animated and moving ones. An erupting volcano cake, maybe not. There were several others. Some, like the Yoda head or scary clown will be impossible unless your an amazing artist as well.The book is a collection of cake ideas from the publishers website. I did find the bazillion links in the book to be annoying and detracted from my enjoyment of the book. Since the cakes are from many different authors, the style and directions are all different. Some instructions are clear and easy to follow, some I had to read and re-read to figure out what they were talking about.Overall a good book, especially for something to really spark the imagination and see what is possible with some cake, frosting and cleverness.
