Synopsis

Peggy Porschen has spearheaded the whole shift of cake decor from traditional to cutting edge. After the enormous success of her Pretty Party Cakes and Romantic Cakes, Peggy now focuses her considerable creative talents on an idea close to her heart and for which she is increasingly in demand - super stylish cakes for all manner of occasions. In this book she combines her amazing gift for matching charming design with striking colour and her effortless flair for accessorizing cakes like fashion outfits to produce her most striking and elegant collection of cakes yet. She also puts even more emphasis on making her cakes taste every bit as good as they look, adding new and exciting flavours to her basic cakes, as well as using the best and most flavoursome of organic ingredients. There are ideas for events like milestone birthdays, girly tea parties, baby showers, and hen nights, as well as more exotic occasions like cocktail parties, anniversaries and pool parties. However, Cake Chic isn't necessarily just for girls, but will suit anyone who wants to put on a memorable show with the minimum of fuss.
