Fab little book! June 20, 2008 Being new to the cupcake scene I decided to buy a little book for inspiration. Cupcake Magic has provided just that! Not only does it have recipes for icing and cake mixtures but also decorating ideas-with instruction and pictures too. If you are a bit of a novice to cake making (like me) this is the perfect book but I'm also guessing that if you're an experienced cupcake Connoisseur, this will provide some great ideas and a whole lot of inspiration. Another couple of bonuses are the light hearted way it is written and the onus on freerange!
Fabulous book June 5, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
Although I have a book-shelf heaving with cake & baking books, I just couldn't resist this one. Kate's style is informative, friendly and fun and the books' design and lay-out make it a pleasure to use. The ingredients are clearly listed, along with many handy hints & tips, and the instructions are easy to follow. The chapters are helpfully ordered in order of 'faffdom', which makes deciding which cakes to make all the easier. I made some of her low-faff cakes and iced them following her recipes and they were a great success.I intend to bake many more! An excellent little book, I love it.
Yummy... April 16, 2008 5 out of 5 found this review helpful
Bought this book after reading an article on the author in a country magazine. Love the enthusiasm and fun in which she writes. This neat, little book, is colourfully illustrated, with handy tips on getting started. It is full of inspiring cupcake and icing ideas, from the simple to something a little more fanciful. Fun to read, with a variety of yummy cake recipes to inspire and delight all.

A lovely book. Great, quirky and fun writing. Even if you had never thought of making cupcakes, you cannot resist it after this. Fab icing inspiration too. Get your children hooked early with the simple ones...
