A Baker’s Field Guide to Cupcakes: Deliciously Decorated Crowd Pleasers for Parties and Holidays
I bake a lot and this is a great addition to my collection of books I use for my baking needs..
Recipes didn’t work and neither did some of the tips for the frostings. Very disappointed in the size of the book with few recipes.

I had recently checked this book out at the library and never in my life have I loved every page of a cupcake book. It’s awesome and it has different cupcake ideas for every holiday and things such as baby showers and weddings. It even included April Fool’s Day. The cupcakes are simple enough to make on your own and you don’t need to be a professional to make these great looking cupcakes. I made April Fool’s Day cupcakes and they were a great success. I had no problems and the people I made them for loved them! I would suggest this book if you love making cupcakes that are creative.
I’m a big fan of Dede Wilson’s Wedding Cake book and was happy to find her latest. Each clever cupcake is shown in a photo, and the recipes are easy, yummy and fun. There’s a cupcake here for every occasion – I can’t wait to try them all out!
I am very pleased with the cookbook. I was looking for ideas for my daughter’s wedding and bridal shower. While there were only a couple recipes that were appropriate for that, I am still happy with the other decorating ideas and recipes. I would recommend it to anyone.
