Described by Chef Duff Goldman of Ace of Cakes as “hugely aspirational yet completely approachable,” the authors demonstrate how to build up each flower using simple piping techniques that even the novice cake decorator will be able to achieve.

Opening with a guide to making your own stable buttercream icing, with advice on colouring and flavouring, and covering all the essentials such as how to fill a piping bag and the basic techniques you need, the book then goes on to present each flower in step-by-step photographic detail, and ends with five full cake decorating projects demonstrating how you can use your newfound flower piping skills to create stunning cake designs.

With expert instruction from the best buttercream teachers in the world, and a huge range of flowers to try, this book is the ultimate reference to piping flowers in buttercream and will be a cake decorating classic for years to come.
