Sugar Flowers: The Art Of Sugarcraft

As a first time beginner, I was turning out stunning Peonys, Orchids and even Bamboo! Nicholas Lodge has shown the detail of several flowers from all over the world. There is even advice on how to use simple household items to create the shapes and detail of petals. It may take the average American a minute to realise that a "Cocktail Stick" is a Toothpick and "White Fat" is Crisco, but beginners should find this book very useful. Put the 5 Star Finish on a cake...Realistic flowers made of sugar!
