GORGEOUS PHOTOS-DECANATE RECIPES--BETTER KNOW YOUR STUFF!
Liked this book but honestly, the ingredients are very expensive, and the techniques to prepare some of the gorgeous design assume you are experienced already. I think there's too much in small print and too much technical expertise assumed to make this book for the home cook that hasn't been to culinary school. Oh, I'll give it a try, but I noticed, I'm not excited to get going like I've been with other cookbooks.

Not for beginners!
I agree with the previous reviewer this book is not for beginners. BUT what a book! The recipies are great, and presentations wonderful. The portions, sometimes serving 20 need to be reduced, and measures are in weight (took me a minute with 10 oz eggs). If you're a veteran baker you'll have a book that challenges-- and rewards with plenty of wow appeal at your next dinner party.

mad skills needed
the pictures are amazing and i yet haven't tried any of the recipes, but i bet they would be lovely. it's not really how to make everything, but some of these things will take some talent to plate up. i haven't seen any books on plated desserts besides the one by this author so i took the plunge and got all 3. i am looking for a book more based on different techniques used. these books show u more rare unusual things, and not much teaching involved.

Cool Book
I thought that this was a great book. As stated above; by other reviewers, this is not a beginner's book although not one that is entirely impossible for beginners to follow. I bought this book for reference for an upcoming ACF sanctioned event. I am rather new to this field but will be competing in it. It has many great ideas and alot of the deserts where displayed beautifully. The preparation of many garnishes where not explained but these are easily found on the internet.I recommend this book to anyone looking to not just excel but have fun in the pastry field.
