Introduction Welcome to Easy Buttercream Cake Designs Since I began posting - photo 1
Introduction

Welcome to Easy Buttercream Cake Designs.

Since I began posting online cake decorating tutorials on my blog Icing Bliss and teaching cake decorating classes, I realized that many people falsely believe that pretty cake decorations are beyond their ability. However, in truth, with a little practice and a few cake decorating tools, beautiful creations are not out of anyones reach.

This book features 3 easy buttercream projects, each with detailed step-by-step instructions to assist readers in mastering simple cake decorating techniques and create impressive single-tier cakes for all occasions. Each project demonstrates how to prepare a cake before decorations can be added and features different techniques including creating simple patterns with buttercream. I have chosen the designs to suit beginners who have little or no previous cake decorating experience, but I hope this book will also serve to inspire more experienced cake decorators and act as a design resource.

While the instructions for each project will enable you to reproduce every one of the cakes exactly, I encourage you to adapt the designs and experiment with colours to make your creations unique. If you take the time to also make a few extra decorations while completing each project, you will quickly build up a useful collection of attractive decorations that you can use another day on other bakes such as cookies or cupcakes.

Although I have included some staple recipes, this book was intended to focus on sugarcraft rather than baking. Acknowledging that a lot of people dont have the time or the patience to bake cakes and just want to focus on decorating, there is no shame in using store-bought sponges or plain cakes from supermarkets for these projects.

I hope that you enjoy the projects in this book and will feel inspired to use the techniques learned in your future cake endeavours.

Happy Cake Crafting!

Fiona
