A step-by-step baking guide packed with recipes, tips and tricks for the perfect cookbook gift

The ultimate guide to making, baking and decorating jaw-dropping cakes from Instagram and Youtube sensation Georgia’s Cakes.

If you’re looking to take your cake decorating skills to the next level then look no further. No other book guides you through every step of cake decorating with as much detail and explanation as this one, while keeping it as simple and accessible as possible. Georgia’s expertise, knowledge and teaching skills will transform the way you understand and approach modern day cake decorating.

From baking a perfect sponge and explaining how the ingredients work, to mastering the palette knife; this is more than a baking book, this is a masterclass in cake artistry. Cake decorating has advanced and modernised over the last few years – buttercream has trumped fondant, cake layers are taller and designs have become more contemporary. We’re even throwing all sorts of decorations into the mix (who knew that popcorn took the top of a cake to new dimensions?!).

Cordon Bleu trained Georgia Green has found a unique balance between a home baker and a professional pastry chef. Specialising in cake decorating, Georgia has discovered that sometimes it’s OK to take shortcuts, yet still maintain the highest quality of ingredients, skill and execution. Known from her successful Instagram and YouTube channels, Georgia and her sweet-toothed followers have proved that anyone can recreate an outstanding looking (and tasting) cake. The proof is, quite literally, in the pudding.
