sugarcraft/cake decorating

[alfie jones]

Hello, I have looked high and low for courses and-or books..on cake decorating (sugar flowers, icing and the like)..I just need someone to point me in the right direction.Can anyone recommend any books etc which might help a beginner?. I cake bake great cakes, so its just the decoration I need help with please. Any pointers would be great! (tried all of the usual searches-no places available on my local college course)...THANKS! : )

Have you looked in larger branches of WH Smith and also in shops selling utensils for cake baking and decorating?

the libraries normally have quite a good range of these sort of books, although some of them can be a bit dated, but basic info doesn't really change that much

Apart from book shops & libraries, your local college would be able to assist. I did a sugarcraft/cake decor course once & the tutor was very helpful. I must admit I  preferred my Flower Arranging course.
