In recent years cake decorating has experienced a renaissance. Freed from the 70s image of a homemaker laboring to cover a cake with thousands of perfectly piped stars, cake has returned to the spotlight with a vengeance.
The Food Network, Martha Stewart, the Today Show, and other media brands capitalize on the awe-inspiring cake designs produced by top bakers and pastry chefs.The popularity of cake decorating is undeniably intense. Duff Goldman’s take-no-prisoners approach to decorating made “Ace of Cakes” one of Food Network’s highest-rated shows.
From the art-inspired designs of Colette Peters and pristine floral accents of Nicholas Lodge to the fashion-inspired cakes of Ron Ben-Israel, the refined precision of Kerry Vincent, and the realistic sculptures of Mike McCarey, almost any object can be reproduced in cake—to ever-rising artistic standards.
It’s really no surprise that people love cake decorating. Presenting someone with an artistically customized dessert that you made yourself is a highly rewarding experience. Cake decorating allows for tremendous range in personal expression and creativity—and in the end you eat it, leaving the canvas ready for your next masterpiece to take shape.
Through it all, American Cake Decorating stands ready to assist you. With detailed pictures and clear instructions, American Cake Decorating guides you through the techniques used by the masters, transforming plain layers of cake into your own delicious works of art.
