Customer Rating:      Summary: Un buen libro,.. Comment: Es un buen libro, pero reconozco que me decepcionó un poco el hecho de que incluye muchas recetas, pero pocas ideas de decoración.
Al tener un cover tan vistoso, esperaba que el contenido también lo fuera.
Customer Rating:      Summary: Love it! Comment: I'm one of those busy office workers who does not seem to have the time to make things. This book is wonderful! It teaches me to slow down and take care in measuring and mixing because the results are absolutely smooth, moist and just divine! I would like to start off by saying that baking is not really my thing because I would not know where to start. In fact, this is the BEST category to start. Cupcakes bring something back from your childhood. The way I think, 3 things would make you smile the most. Children, pets and CUPCAKES!
I'm from Australia and one of the things I find a bit fiddly to adjust is the conversion of everything into metric. I have no idea how many sticks of butter = whatever weight, but luckily google is my friend. All temperatures are to be converted, but it is touch and go a bit with your oven types. I have never overcooked my cupcakes, so it is just a case of leaving things in there a little bit longer until they pass the skewer test.
For a non-cook like me, I love the fact that the ingredients are listed in the order they are being used. Nothing annoys me more than having to jump about the book to work out what I should use, what quantity and how to mix it. It does take absolutely aaaaaaages! More time is left for you to mix things properly and in the desired time.
I've tried many recipes on there but my ultimate favourite is the kahlua + tiramisu combo. One small thing, which is not overly major is that the recipes do not tell you how many cupcakes you make. So you do find that sometimes, you have to make 2 trays + a few more depending again on the oven settings and the rise. But these are the things that are beyond the control of the book, and something you would need to find out yourself.
2 thumbs (and toes) up for this book.
LOVE IT!
Customer Rating:      Summary: This is the best cupcake book around! Comment: I own 4 other cupcake books and I have to say this is the best cupcake book I own. This book is packed with recipes, decorating tips, color mixing, cupcake basics...I cannot say enough about this book!
Customer Rating:      Summary: Good recipes, different Comment: I've seen better looking cupcakes, but this book as some new, interesting recipes that are worth trying.
Customer Rating:      Summary: Not quite what I expected Comment: The ideas in this book are really cute and seem easy enough for the average baker to achieve. I haven't tried any of the recipes yet, but there are tons of them, unique and they sound so tasty!
