In New York City the authors teach a unique and easy technique for making stunning
sugar-paste
flowers and ornaments. Their craft has drawn raves from Tiffany, Cartier, Caroline
Kennedy, and
Martha Stewart among others. Now they have assembled their
15 years' expertise into a complete step-by-step how-to and idea book.
Scott Woolley and Michael Farace are, quite simply, the masters of the stunning-to-behold
yet easy-to-learn art of sugar paste flowers. Now, these masters reveal their secrets for
making stunning calla lilies, cheerful sunflowers, tulips galore and much more - or cakes,
in bouquets, as centerpieces - and all from sugar. This book includes step-by-step
instructions on how to make dozens of varieties of flowers, detailed information
on the tools you need to get started, delicious cake recipes and a profusion of gorgeous
photographs, showing finished cakes and centerpieces that will delight and inspire both
professionals and at-home cake decorators at all levels of experience. 200 full-color
photos. 100 b&w illustrations.
