Cake Shaping Book

An excellent book! Just what I was looking for. Very comprehensive, listing equipment required, hints and tips on baking cakes and cake and icing recipes. It gives a portion chart, which is very handy and gives step by step instructions for each project complete with photos. Perfect!
