Product DescriptionOf all the decisions that go into planning a wedding, choosing the cake may be the sweetest. Much more than dessert, this beloved wedding symbol should be as special as the bride and groom themselves.

You will learn:

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Martha Stewart's Wedding Cakes...Awesome!
I purchased this book because I was interested in learning how to make wedding cakes. My first, which wasn't even a wedding cake, it was my neice's 3rd birthday cake, came out so beautifully. I used the recipes for the Vanilla Bean Sponge Cake and the Chocolate Butter Cake...both were PHENOMENAL and I got rave reviews. I even had three people inquire about me making cakes for them!!! Although some of the recipes may seem a little tedious, I truly believe that it is the small things that you do that make these cakes wonderful. They take time (LOTS of time...mine took about 15 hours from start to finish!!!) and cutting corners does not get you the best results. I have already recommended this book to many people interesetd in learning to bake like myself! BUY IT!!! I know its expensive....but it will last you for a VERY long time!!!



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Martha Stewart's Wedding Cakes
My book was delivered in a timely manner. Condition of the book was excellent.



Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Coffee Table Book
Nice book, but more of a coffee table book than a how-to. It does have some great photos and good recipes.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - One in a million
I've been on the search for the perfect wedding cake recipe for over ten years. You can call it an obsession as I personally love the way wedding cake tastes and I'm not even married! I bought this book as soon as it was published and the recipes are incredible - as well as the photos. For anyone who bakes wedding cakes this is one recipe book worth the investment.
