Katrien loves chocolate and uses it in cake decorating because it not only tastes delicious, but is so versatile. In this book she shows you how to create beautifully decorated cakes: fresh, contemporary, fun and irresistible. It is filled with techniques and ideas for everyone, whether you just want to decorate a ready-made cake or use one of the scrumptious recipes in the book to bake it from scratch, whether you only bake occasionally or do it for a living.

With more than 20 original decorating designs to copy, as well as smaller chocolate decorations, mini cakes and cupcakes, all demonstrated with clear, step-by-step photographs, you will quickly learn to create your own show-stoppers. Katrien also shares a host of hints and shortcuts resulting from years of experimenting to find the best ingredients and techniques for perfect results.

Tried and tested recipes for cakes as well as scrumptious fillings, guidelines for portion sizes and templates for deco­rations all contribute to making this an essential addition to the library of any baking enthusiast. The contents include:

  • Basic techniques
  • Equipment
  • Types of chocolate
  • Working with chocolate
  • Filling and coating cakes
  • Stacking cakes
  • Decorating a cake board
  • Cake designs
  • Basic recipes
  • Cutting and serving
  • Transporting and storing
  • Portion guide
  • Templates

Lavishly illustrated with exquisite photographs, this book attests to the fact that cake decorating has become an art form. The projects are graded from easy to advanced, so there really is something for everyone.

Van Zyl, Katrien: - Katrien van Zyl knew from the age of 12 that she would love to bake for a living. A self-proclaimed chocoholic, she combines these two loves when baking commissioned wedding and party cakes. After completing a four-year degree in home economics at Stellenbosch University she worked in the catering industry for several years, where she became involved in wedding planning and commercial baking for weddings and parties, among others. After her own wedding she started marketing her original wedding and party cake designs from her website, to leave time for helping out in her husband's business, and being full-time stepmom to his three boys. Her first book, Katrien's cakes, is a bestseller both locally and abroad.
