Book Reviews of Celebrate with a Cake!

Book Review: Well written.
Summary: 3 Stars

This book is well written and easy to follow. I was expecting a book with all styles of cakes. These cakes only had the fondant instructions. Also disappointed because the cake recipes are all for girl cakes. I have 3 boys so this book is basically useless when baking a cake for a boy.
