The Best Ever Cake Book Reviews


  • F. O.

    3.5 stars. It’s very pretty to look at and well organized. But the cake selection isn’t as exciting as I want it to be. (Do we really need Victoria Sponge AND Lemon Drizzle in a book of 20 cakes when there are so many countries that could be represented?)

  • Karrie

    This in incorrectly filed in the adult section at my library. But I loved this book! Very colorful and fun recipes. Very informative and I think kids would have fun reading and making a bunch of cakes.

  • Pinky

    Want to try the Victoria Sponge, the Carrot Cake, and the Celebration Cake recipes.

  • Dray

    Not the best cake book but… a good cake book for beginning teen bakers. I liked the informative panels on eggs, sugar, chocolate etc.
