 Rating:  - Practice Makes PerfectOK, you can make, assemble, and decorate a cake or plated dessert. One teeny, tiny, problem: someone in the next room says: `by the way, can you write HAPPY BIRTHDAY FRED' on the cake? This is a problem for both amateurs and pros, inasmuchas your efforts look like the doodles of an 8-year-old. Happily, this book will train you, of either ilk, to do this task properly. Do you remember those practice books from grade school, where you filled out endless worksheets to teach you how to do handwriting? Well, this book is the same thing, except for cakes and desserts and things for designs, words, etc. Note: this is NOT complete by itself. You will also need the companion volume Décomaster: Decorating with a Paper Cone, 120 Practice Sheets of practice sheets. I also assume that you will need a few clear acetate sheets for practice. This rather remarkable book has 3 sections. The first goes through the associated practice sheets, one by one, and tells you how to trace the sometimes amazing decos. Second, it has a section of pro-quality showpieces guaranteed to gain you an international reputation should you decide to enter such a pro competition. The most remarkable section is the last and shortest section in yellow pages. It has MANY recipes for many and sundry piping stuffs. This section alone is worth the price of admission, even if you never wield a parchment-paper-piping-cone. All in all, very worthwhile, and do not forget to also buy the practice sheets. Rating: - Don't buy used books from AmazonI recently ordered Decorating With a Paper Cone, which is a fine book but was a used book. Now mind you I don't expect used books to be in prestine condition but what I got was a book that was almost falling apart. The hard cover was all chewed up and some of the pages were glued together with what I am guessing is sugar from royal icing. If Amazon is going to send out these type of products in such bad condition I will no longer buy a used item from them. Plain and simple. I expected a lot more from Amazon. Shame on you. Rating:  - Came without the necessary 8" X16" practice sheets!Beautiful book, but you are advised to have (their spelling) "A very diseful additional tool" --- 120 color coded practice sheets that are to be used apart from the book. Not here, and you can't get them on the web. The publisher, John Wiley, is not up front about this. Shame on them. The sheets are produced in mini version on the book's pages. You could xerox them, I suppose. It's a major annoyance, though. Rating: - Decorating With A Paper ConeHaving just joined the world of cake decorating, I have found that the book have expanded my skills through detailed step by step examples. It also have enhanced my design ability to create more interesting cakes. What a great find that I cannot do without.
