Book Reviews of Wild About Cupcakes: Over 130 Recipes

Book Review: Looks fantastic!
Summary: 5 Stars

I bought this as a gift for my friend who loves to bake. The thing that attracted me was the pictures. Most cookbooks I looked at had some pictures at the beginning, but then none, or very few, for the actual recipes. This book is great! The pictures are really amazing and available for every single recipe! Its great if you want to know what your cupcakes will end up looking like or if you need decorating ideas. Since it is a gift I haven't tried any of the recipes yet, but if they turn out anything like they look in the pictures, I'm sure they will be delicious. Each recipe comes with ingredient lists for both the cupcake and the topping/decorations. The directions are easy to read and tell you what to do, step by step.

The book shipped quickly, and the only thing I would like them to have done better is put a little more protection around it. The edge of my book is a little bent and there are slight scratches on the cover, nothing major. But other than that, I would definitely recommend this :)
