“Have you ever wondered why your finished cake was not quite what you wanted?  Perhaps it went wrong before you started – perhaps you need ot plan your design before you begin construction.  Here is a book that gives a practical approach to the design of cakes.  How to Design Beautiful Cakes covers the two main aspects of design – principles and elements.  Each of these is divided into distinct areas such as unity, harmony and contrast, balance, proportion, shape, line, space, texture, and colour, with an explanation of how to apply them to your cake.”
